Publisher's Synopsis
Francis Bacon's conversation was by turns witty, provovative, and profound. In gathering together Bacon's most memorable aphorisms, Michael Peppiatt - a friend of the artist - evokes both the force of his personality and the range of his interests. The sayings assembled for the first time in 'Only Too Much is Enough' form a brilliant accompaniment to Bacon's paintings, conveying as they do not only a sceptical and sometimes disquieting outlook on human relationships, but also keen insights into the creative process.
