Joy Melville's major biography of the Russian impresario brings
to life a brief and daring age of sophisticated and hedonistic
pleasure set against the backdrop of a swiftly changing world. In
Paris and London, Sergei Diaghilev drew together an amazingly
talented group of like-minded artists such as Picasso, Bakst, and
Fokine, as well as dancers like Nijinsky, Lifar, and Karsavina, and
the composers Igor Stravinsky and Sergei Prokofiev. Diaghilev's
tempestuous and destructive affair with his protege Nijinsky and
his friendship with Jean Cocteau are closely examined.
