Arriving in London a green young gay from a horsy Irish background,
Francis Bacon proceeded to revolt the philistines and electrify the
art world. He died leaving 11 million to his steady lover. Mr
Farson, who revelled in his company for 40 years - 'revelling'
seems the operative word here - recalls their Soho stamping-ground,
Nina Hamnett, the French Pub et al, and the bubbly bitchy fall-out
from the artist's circle. (Kirkus UK)
Widely regarded as the best British painter since Turner, very
little is known about Francis Bacon's life. In this, the first-ever
book to be written about him, Daniel Farson, friend and confidant
to Bacon for over forty years, gives a highly personal, first-hand
account of the man as he knew him. From his sexual adventures to
his rise from obscurity to international fame, Farson gives us
unique insight into Bacon's genius.
