About this audiobook
He painted clocks that melt like cheese, grew a mustache that defied gravity, and turned his life into a work of surrealist art. But behind the spectacle, who was Salvador Dalí — really?
Salvador Dalí: The Dream Painter is the biography of the most recognizable artist of the twentieth century: the frightened boy from Figueres who believed he was the reincarnation of the dead brother whose name he carried; the young provocateur expelled from art school who detonated the Paris art world before he was twenty-five; the lover who built his muse a castle she would only let him visit by written invitation; and the aging showman who ended his days in a tower room, half-convinced the world had conspired to steal his genius.
Across ten chapters, follow Dalí from the cemeteries of Figueres to the shop windows of Fifth Avenue, from a fisherman's house in Portlligat to the museum he built as his monument — a life so theatrical the hardest part is believing it is true. Most of it is.
