Intimate diaries5
First published in 1962, when Page was already a well established European designer. Reading this book is one of them rare occasions when a marvellous professional as Page was lets you in generously.

Page's accounts merge the personal with the professional, and encompass a wide spectrum indeed. It is, therefore, a book to read by the small bedroom lamp, as well as in the study room, while working.

It has by now become a legendary novel, a rare breed that set a precedent, although rarely followed. It is analogous to a good old-fashioned radio show - romantic, endearing and memorable. Russell Page (1906-1995).
