A Note on the Author
Michael Peppiatt has been writing about art and artists since 1964, when he began reviewing exhibitions for the Observer while still a student. He left London for a job as arts editor at Réalités then Le Monde in Paris, where he lived at the heart of the art and literary world for the following thirty years, becoming cultural correspondent for the New York Times and, in 1985, owner and publisher of Art International.
Peppiatt is the author of a dozen books, including Francis Bacon: Anatomy of an Enigma, In Giacometti’s Studio, Interviews with Artists and the acclaimed memoir Francis Bacon in Your Blood. He has also curated numerous exhibitions, notably Giacometti in Postwar Paris, Caravaggio/Bacon, Joan Miró: A Painter Among Poets and, recently, Bacon/Giacometti.

‘One of the best art books I have read, by turns atmospheric and waspishly gossipy but also profound and poignant’ The Times
Michael Peppiatt first met Francis Bacon in a pub in Soho and was immediately swept up into the controversial painter’s world. Over oysters and champagne, they embarked on a friendship that would endure for thirty years. This is the story of their lives, closely intertwined and recalled at their most extraordinary moments.
