I adore Marlene. She stayed a Mystery for us.
She was a woman who combined beauty with goodness and intelligence. She was loved by the greatest men of her time, Remarque, Hemingway, Gabin …
Marlene had a tender affection for Russia and Russian culture…
The remarkable part my life was spent with the Russian. First, I learned to cook their food and then tried vodka – one of the healthiest alcoholic drinks, by the way.
