Letters to Camondo
Letters to Camondo | By Edmund de Waal
From the author of the bestselling phenomenon The Hare with Amber Eyes.
As you may have guessed by now, I am not in your house by accident. I know your street rather well.
The Camondos lived just a few doors away from Edmund de Waal's forebears. Like de Waal's family, they were part of belle epoque high society. They were also targets of antisemitism. Count Moise de Camondo created a spectacular house filled with art for his son to inherit.
Over a century later, de Waal explores the lavish rooms and detailed archives and, in a haunting series of letters addressed to Camondo, he tells us what happened next.
