Erte: Things I Remember - An Autobiography

by Erté

In this autobiography Erte looks back over the years and, with his characteristic eye for significant and amusing detail, he describes the personae and events that have filled his life. He recalls his childhood in Russia, his years in Monte Carlo during World War I, and his life in Paris and Hollywood. The procession of well-known characters is vividly described - from Isadora Duncun to Barbra Streisand, from Louis B Mayer to Roland Petit.

Name dropping a la 20th century style!
Something of a testimony to the history of queer life, however much it's veiled or read between the lines.
