Title: Vile
Review: if there is one consistant theme in this ponderous book it's the author's unrelenting obsession with exposing Balthus' alleged Jewishness. With access to so many of the great man's intimates as well as being a guest in the artist's home each page is full of missed opportunites to shed real insight into his personality. A life such as Balthus deserved better than this dishonorable treatment by a bottom feeding journalist.
