"Surrealism is playful and This is Dali embraces its very concept and philosophy: Dali's works lie alongside drawings of his fabulous home at Port Lligat, an imagined scene at one of his extravagant parties and important biographical moments. The inspirations and events are detailed in a truly accessible and enjoyable manner. Dali's life and art were inextricable from one another and Catherine Ingram seamlessly presents the two together in a book that is itself a work of art. " Bryony Byrne, Aesthetica
"Ingram['s] greatest gift is the subtlety with which she invites us to connect the dots between Dalí's struggles and baggage on the one hand and his outrageous behavior and controversial views on the other, engendering a kind of soft sympathy for this odd man who spent his life in the hedonic treadmill of his own making." Maria Popova, Brainpickings
"Rae's attention to detail is impressive: artwork helps paint a vivid picture of artist's surroundings and upbringings, and bring to life personal moments that are difficult to illustrate through text alone." Rachael Steven, Creative Review
