Poetry, music, and the joy of conversation—three facets of the same creative universe—come together in this interview from Georges Moustaki to Marc Legras. Moustaki takes us through his youthful aimlessness and the street life of his native Alexandria. Reviving a fascinating period for the reader, Moustaki discusses his relationships with mythical figures such as Édith Piaf, Astor Piazzolla, Jorge Amado, and Elis Regina, all of whom have left an indelible mark on his work.
