Here he shares his memories of his experiences with the private couple through recounting the times - troubled, hectic, and satisfying - that they spent in Hollywood, New York, London and Paris. "A warm and loving profile of two unusual people, brilliantly written. An enchanting book" (Artur Rubinstein).
