Federico Fellini: His Life and Work

• Used Book in Good Condition

<p>"Trenchant in its critical analysis, absorbing and sympathetic in its account of his private life, Kezich's <i>Fellini </i>is a revelation. It effaces virtually everything written to date about the Italian maestro . . . This engrossing biography mirrors its subject. It's affectionate, garrulous and often rambling, and in sudden flashes of brilliance it offers a penetrating view of Fellini's life and art." ―Peter Cowie, <i>The Nation</i><br><i></i><br><i></i>"Few writers are able to approach Fellini with the privilege of intimate experience and friendship . . . Kezich fills the pages of this biography with uncommon detail and artistry, presenting a chronicle that weaves life with film, fact with fantasy, in a style reminiscent of the great director's avant-garde style . . . For the aficionado of Fellini's works, this narrative of his life provides a sea of subtle, precious anecdotes. To those yet unacquainted with the Italian master, the book is an introduction not only to the man's life, but his art, also. It's a captivating read." ―Karoun Demirjian, <i>The Christian Science Monitor</i><br><i></i><br><i></i>"Kezich's forty-year friendship with the maestro allows him to offer up an intimate and lively portrait of Fellini filled with revealing anecdotes and psychological insight." ―Michel Ciment, author of <i>Kubrick </i>and <i>Kazan on Kazan</i></p>
