In 1979, Dominique de Gasquet met Gala and Dalí. Two years later, Gala invited her to the couple’s castle in Púbol. She listened, enchanted, to the Russian muse tell of her adventures discovering Paris and Surrealism, meeting Paul Éluard and Max Ernst, and falling in love with Dalí. There, Dominique also met Arturo, Dalí’s right-hand man for over fifty years, and his wife Paquita. Both were witnesses to the couple’s private life, their incredible love for each other, and the poetry of their everyday life far from the mundanity of the city. Arturo has since passed away, but Paquita, now in her eighties, has agreed for the first time to share her memories. A celebration of intimacy and humanity, this book is a literary and sensual look at Gala and Dalí’s chosen family in this hidden corner of Spain.
