520    A daughter's homage to the extraordinary lives of two 
       fascinating, irrepressible people who were larger than 
       life emblems of a bygone age. Tatiana du Plessix, Russian 
       wife of a French diplomat, and Alexander Liberman, a 
       gifted magazine editor and aspiring artist, lived as part 
       of the artistic Russian émigré community in Paris in the 
       1930s. The two began a passionate affair and fled to New 
       York with Tatiana's young daughter, Francine. There they 
       rose to the top of high society, holding court to the 
       midcentury's intellectuals and entertainers, friends like 
       Marlene Dietrich, Salvador Dalí, and the publishing tycoon
       Condé Nast. Tatiana became an icon of New York fashion, 
       and the hats she designed for Saks Fifth Avenue were de 
       rigueur for stylish women everywhere. Liberman eventually 
       came to preside over the Condé Nast empire. The glamorous 
       life they shared was both creative and destructive and was
       marked by an exceptional bond forged out of their highly 
       charged love and raging self-centeredness.--From publisher
