One of the most fascinating and sad love stories of the twentieth world century. The story of the romance between the most famous singer of the "lost generation" Erich Maria Remarque and the most famous "femme fatale" of world cinema, Marlene Dietrich, told by themselves in letters they wrote to each other. Their relationship wasn't simple. In them, outbursts of passion and tenderness were too often replaced by misunderstanding, jealousy, distrust, and even hostility. Their relationship was both necessary and painful for both Dietrich and Remarque. They were supposed to end badly, and they ended badly. But even now, the letters of the great writer and the brilliant actress touch to the depths of the soul ... Erich Maria Remarque is one of the greatest writers of the 20th century, the author of the novels "On the Western Front without Change", "Three Comrades" and "The Arc de Triomphe". Marlene Dietrich is a famous actress and singer, a style icon who has had a huge impact on modern fashion. — This edition includes the preserved correspondence between Remarque and Dietrich, which forms the story of one of the most fascinating and sad love stories of the entire 20th century. — In no other book has Remarque been so honest, outspoken, and vulnerable, and expressed his thoughts about love, women, war, and peace so openly. — Collector's edition of the Library of Classics series: dust jacket, minimalistic boomwind binding, high-quality paper.
