A Financial Times Book of the Year: the definitive story of
fashion's most enigmatic icon. Karl Lagerfeld lived a very public
life. He shaped the Chanel and Fendi brands for decades, and his
wit and wisdom amused and informed the world. Yet despite a
massively public persona, his hinterland remained unknown. What is
the truth behind this larger-than-life but enigmatic figure? The
journalist and fashion specialist Alfons Kaiser met Lagerfeld on
numerous occasions. He has now written the first authoritative
biography on this fascinating character, whose life has always been
marked by elements of secrecy. From his parents’ links with the
Nazi regime to Lagerfeld’s last days in the company of only his
closest friends, this book – the result of unprecedented archival
and field work – divulges all the facets of a passionate artist
and workaholic: the precocious boy who preferred to draw in the
attic rather than play with his peers; the son who quarrelled with
his parents but never got away from them; the competitor of Yves
Saint Laurent, whom he outshone in the end; the brother, uncle,
friend; and finally, the partner of Jacques de Bascher, the great
love of his life.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
In this masterpiece of a novel, poet, writer and former Daily News (South Africa) Editor and The Independent (United Kingdom) Associate Editor Kaizer Mabhilidi Nyatsumba beautifully weaves together the twisting kaleidoscope of diverse themes such as modern-day relationships with their complexities: polyamory, South Africa’s political evolution, its political decay and a prognosis for its fateful future! On The Precipice reveals the writer’s deep knowledge of South Africa’s transition to democracy and his acute observation of the shenanigans which have seen it patched precariously on the brink of catastrophe as a failed state.
In Love with a Stranger is a moving collection of short
stories by Johannesburg-based Kaizer Mabhilidi Nyatsumba, whose
impressive powers of human observations and acclaimed writing
expertise are on display in this book. Contained in it are
fascinating short stories written at a time when South Africa was
going through an historic political transition that gripped the
world’s attention. Although based in South Africa, the stories have
a universal appeal. While some may be of greater interest or
relevance to people in countries dealing with conflicts or going
through transitions, the themes and emotions that the stories touch
upon are universal in nature, such as love and fear, among others.
