More about the book
'Dalí' combines both the author's first-hand knowledge of Dali, and the author's analysis of Dali's own writings and the words others have written about Dali. In doing so, the author paints his own unique picture of Dali's artistic oeuvre while weaving in a good deal of biographical content. Romero conceived of the book around 1969, while Dali was working on his masterwork, Hallucinogenic Bullfighter. At that time, it was decided to use said work as the basis, or linking element, for this book. While Romero's story winds through various Dali works, experiences, and anecdotes, it is the symbolism portrayed in the Bullfighter that Romero connects to the lifelong expressions of Dali.
