From "Gymnopedies" to the scandalous ballet "Relache", Erik Satie's creations are paradoxical and extraordinary, and the mask the composer created for himself was as deliberately ambiguous as his music. This biography, published to tie in with the 70th anniversary of Satie's death, includes evidence and reminiscences from a wide variety of acquaintances, friends, fellow artists and antagonists. More than half the extracts in the book appear in English for the first time.
