Condition: Very Good Slight scuffs to cover, pages foxed but otherwise excellent condition Plot / Content: "... in fantastical baroque splendor, flanked by Sphinxes and Buddhas, haunted by the ghosts of Garbo and Callas, reigns a flamboyant aging film director called Adolphe. He has summoned a young writer friend, Charles, to read to him his new novel. Evening after evening, Adolphe, who might be wearing an Elsa Schiaparelli or got up as Miss Gay Dawn in Key Largo, listens and interrupts his protégé with advice, praise, ridicule, tantalising gossip and intoxicating wisdom. As Charles's own narrative - a moving autobiographical account of love - unfolds in Adolphe's dazzling domain, something unexpected and transforming happens to each of them."
