Tras la muerte de su padre, el prestigioso empresario alemán Eric Zimmerman decide viajar a España para supervisar las delegaciones de la empresa Müller. En la oficina central de Madrid conoce a Judith, una joven ingeniosa y simpática de la que se encapricha de inmediato. Judith sucumbe a la atracción que el alemán ejerce sobre ella y acepta formar parte de sus juegos sexuales, repletos de fantasías y erotismo. Junto a él aprenderá que todos llevamos dentro un voyeur, y que las personas se dividen en sumisas y dominantes... Pero el tiempo pasa, la relación se intensifica y Eric empieza a temer que se descubra su secreto, algo que podría marcar el principio o el fin de la relación.

Berggruen’s collection with more than one hundred masterpieces is a spectacular tribute to the foresight of this major player in the Paris art market during the second half of the twentieth century. Born into a Jewish family in Berlin in 1914, he went into exile in California on the eve of World War II. He became art critic for the San Francisco Chronicle and assistant to the director of the San Francisco MoMA. After the war, Berggruen returned to Europe, first to Munich as a journalist, then to Paris where he worked at the UNESCO headquarters before becoming an art dealer specialized in the graphic arts of modern artists. He quickly established contacts within the Parisian cultural scene, meeting both the artists he would represent and the poets, dealers, historians, critics, and collectors of the day. Guided by his personal tastes, he built a solid collection of twentieth-century works now housed at the Neue Nationalgalerie Berlin spanning the careers of Pablo Picasso and Paul Klee and including Henri Matisse’s collages and Alberto Giacometti’s sculptures. The vast ensemble was exhibited at the Orangerie in 2024 and is housed in the Berggruen Museum/Neue Nationalgalerie Berlin.

Si bien es reconocido mundialmente como uno de los grandes novelistas del género histórico, y especialmente marítimo, Patrick O’Brian fue, en realidad, un gran contador de historias. Publicada por primera vez en 1976, es ésta una biografía completa, exhaustiva, pero a la vez profundamente personal del gran pintor que fue Pablo Picasso, y la única que ha sabido apreciar plenamente los orígenes mediterráneos del carácter y el arte del artista. Todo en Picasso, excepto su estatura física, era de una escala enorme. Jamás ningún pintor fue tan asombrosamente productivo y con tanta calidad; y tampoco ninguno consiguió ganar tanto dinero en vida con su obra. Nadie puede rivalizar con él en el interés del público, siempre ávido e insaciable. Y Patrick O’Brian, amigo personal de Picasso, lo conocía lo suficientemente bien como para captar la esencia real de su personalidad.
