In this gorgeous handwritten, personal memoir, Pierre Bergé recalls his life with Yves Saint Laurent in Morocco. Bergé awakens the past with personal photographs, many published for the first time, and drawings and watercolors by Lawrence Mynott that evoke the magic of Morocco.

This moving, intimate book offers a rare glimpse into the personal life of the celebrated designer, revealing how Morocco's vibrant culture and extraordinary landscapes inspired some of Saint Laurent's greatest collections.

From their arrival in Marrakech in 1966, their first home purchased together, and their exploration of Morocco and its fascinating light, Bergé provides insights and images. He also pays tribute to friends--including Loulou de La Falaise, Fernando Sánchez, Andy Warhol, and Betty Catroux--who, like them, chose to live in Morocco, or who accompanied them on their adventure.

"An idyllic collection of journal entries, sketches, and photographs that will whisk you away to an earlier time." --InStyle.com
