The latest edition of Assouline's Chic series takes readers to the capital of Spain to give them an intimate insight into this welcoming metropolis. With Madrid expert Cristina Carrillo de Albornoz as guide, the who's who of the city have opened their doors to give an insight into their daily lives. The golden light that seems to envelop the city in a warm atmosphere has been perfectly captured by Oliver Pilcher with his original photographs for this book. Madrid Chic is a celebration of cultural expression, gastronomy and architecture and invites the reader to discover the vibrancy of the Spanish way of life. Poetic accounts by Ernest Hemingway, Antonio Machado and Pablo Neruda mingle with insights from prominent locals such as Baroness Carmen Thyssen-Bornemisza, Elena Foster, Sheila Loewe and Pedro Almodóvar.

From the great aristocracy such as the Duke of Alba to the best young artists such as Sandra Rojo Picón, Madrid Chic takes the reader on a journey through the city's most fascinating places, immersing them in its vibrant spirit and new energy. - Format: 25cm x 33cm x 3cm - Number of pages: 304 - Weight: 3kg - Language: English - Hardcover - ISBN number: 9781649804266
