Anmärkning: Innehållsbeskrivning, sammanfattning	A series of letters to a man who lived in the early twentieth century, whose archives Edmund has recently been exploring. Count Moise de Camondo was a Jewish collector and philanthropist who lived on the famous rue de Monceau at the same time as the Ephrussi, Edmund's forebears, who famously appear in The Hare with Amber Eyes. Like the Ephrussi, Count Camondo and his family were part of Belle poque Parisian high society. They were also targets of anti-semitism. Moise de Camondo created a spectacular house, modelled on the Petit Trianon, and filled it with the greatest private collection of French eighteenth century art for his son Nissim to inherit. But when Nissim was killed in the First World War, it became a memorial and was bequeathed by Moise on his death in 1935 to the French state. In 1942, France betrayed the family- Moise's daughter Beatrice, son-in-law Leon Reinach and grandchildren Bertrand and Fanny were deported to Auschwitz and murdered.The Musee Nissim de Camondo has not been altered since 1936. Over the last year, Edmund has been given the run of the house - its objects and its archives - he spent time there reflecting on the story, and turning up extraordinary documents and images. He is writing here about the nature of memory - in Edmund's charming autobiographical style.

From the author of the bestselling phenomenon The Hare with Amber Eyes

As you may have guessed by now, I am not in your house by accident. I know your street rather well.

The Camondos lived just a few doors away from Edmund de Waal's forebears. Like de Waal's family, they were part of belle époque high society. They were also targets of anti-Semitism.

Count Moïse de Camondo created a spectacular house filled with art for his son to inherit. Over a century later, de Waal explores the lavish rooms and detailed archives and, in a haunting series of letters addressed to Camondo, he tells us what happened next.
