Edmund de Waal is an internationally acclaimed artist and writer. The Hare With Amber Eyes was de Waal's moving memoir of his family chosen as one of the books of the decade by the Sunday Times and of the 21st century by the Guardian. Now with Letters to Camondo he tells the story of the Count Moïse de Camondo, who, like de Waal’s forebears, was part of Belle Époque society, and also subject to its anti-semitism. Unchanged since 1936, Camondo’s spectacular Parisian house and extensive art collection were bequeathed on his death to the nation.
