O knihe

Dear Marco, a gentle, loving husband and doting father, a hilarious showman, making it all up as he goes along, winging it in the world of high finance, keeping his true genius in the shadows. More than a memoir of an extraordinary marriage, this book is a love letter to a complex, vulnerable, talented man who could have been a concert violinist, a classical pianist, an accomplished composer but whose insecurities about his origins destroy all confidence in creativity and send him spiralling into an addiction to alcohol, which he frequently overcomes to the joy and applause of his loyal supporters. Told by his wife, Michelle, the story is not only a record of her husband's on-off alcohol abuse but of her own reactions, innermost fears and constant efforts to help him battle it and at times her desire to escape from it. She gives us the inside story of a beautiful love affair, a successful marriage filled with humour and laughter under increasing threat from an enemy no one seems able to control. The journey embraces their passion for France and the final move to a new life where all must be resolved.
