Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In the late 1960s Elmyr (pronounced elMEER) de Hory was the worlds most talentedand most successful art forgerever. For over 20 years his bogus masterpieces filtered into prestigious collections on five continents. In 1967 his chicanery ended in a scandal that rocked the art world, although this monoclewearing charmers artful deception did not end there. He seduced most everyone he met, counting Marilyn Monroe, Liz Taylor, Montgomery Clift, Rita Hayworth, and Orson Welles among his friends. As a young American Midwesterner, I fell under his spell when I met Elmyr in 1969 on the Mediterranean island of Ibiza, becoming his personal assistant while he became my mentor and closest friend. His hilltop villa was my university where, beyond the glamour of the rich and famous, the people I met seemed to spring from the mind of Lewis Carroll, and life appeared LSDinspired in its strangeness. Elmyr also had deeper secrets than anyone knew. This memoir is a comingofage journey of discovery providing the most personal account of this famously infamous faker that finally untangles the longstanding mythology about his life. It is a story marked by outrageous humor, tragedy, love, and search for the truth as seen through the eyes of his protgthe Forgers Apprentice.
