"A must have":
For anyone interested in Lee Miller, or Lee Miller and Roland Penrose, or Roland Penrose, or the mysterious and marvelous relationship between artists who end up falling love, this book is for you. Katherine Slusher does an incredible job depicting the simpatico (and, at times, not so simpatico, yet always dynamic) shared life of Miller and Penrose, placing them among other, wellknown artistic couples like O'Keeffe and Stieglitz, Kahlo and Rivera, Mondotti and Weston, to mention a few. Slusher, who had access to the Lee Miller Archives, loads her book with wonderful pictures, some seldom seen in other publications. It's fascinating to read the ways in which Miller and Penrose come together and apart and together and apart while making important and fundamental contributions to the world of art. Slusher's writing is clear, well informed, and a pleasure to read.
