520 0 $aThe years that this book means to bring back to life are bathed in an enchanting, uncertain light, so faint and yet so bright that it may have been only a dream. Their unreal tones, like some shimmering landscape in a film where disaster lies in wait, light up that period between the end of the Great War and the dark days of the 1930s, between the belle epoque and the final summers of the Roaring Twenties. The French Riviera was the place to be during the twenties and early thirties. Artists and writers from all over the world came to invent a new way of life--Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald, Gerald and Sara Murphy, Picasso, Picabia, Stravinsky, Cocteau, Diaghilev, Eileen Gray, Anna de Noailles and Hemingway, to name a few. A photobiography of this happy time, French Riviera revives the now-legendary story of these mythic personalities living in a world divided between a thirst for creation, the hunt for happiness and the ominously approaching violence of World War II.
