The Gulf of Pleasure

This unforgettable memoir of life on the French Riviera in the 1950s is a triumph of sensual writing and evocative storytelling. With his impeccable eye for detail and his flair for capturing the peculiarities of human relationships, Alan Ross paints a vivid picture of a world of wealth, glamour, and hedonism that is both exhilarating and ultimately tragic. From the beaches of Cannes to the nightclubs of St. Tropez, this book is a journey through a lost world of excess and indulgence, offering a glimpse into a time and place that will never be seen again.
