The Andy Warhol Diaries

'His last great work of art' Nicholas Lezard, Guardian

'Cruel, sexy, and sometimes heartbreaking ... Warhol is no neutral observer, but a character in his own right' Newsweek

Andy Warhol kept these diaries faithfully from November 1976 until his final week, in February 1987. Written at the height of his fame and success, Warhol records the fun of an Academy Awards party, nights out at Studio 54, trips between London, Paris, and New York, and surprisingly even the money he spent each day, down to the cent. With appearances from and references to everyone who was anyone, from Jim Morrison, Martina Navratilova and Calvin Klein to Shirley Bassey, Estee Lauder, and Muhammad Ali, these diaries are the most glamorous, witty, and revealing writings of the twentieth century.
