Pierre Bergé shared his life with Yves Saint Laurent for fifty years. These letters, written to the great fashion designer after his death, relieve the carefree days when they were discovering fame and building their renewed art collection, as well as the bitter ones that followed, filled with drugs and depression. This homage to their passionate, sometimes tempestuous life together is a last and intimate farewell to a towering figure of 20th century fashion.
