Greta Garbo is one of the most romantic and most mysterious figures in world cinema. Garbo was extraordinarily beautiful: the proportions of her face corresponded to the proportions of the faces of ancient statues, and the proportions of her body corresponded to the example of the ancient beauty of the Venus de Milo. This northern woman with classic facial features became a symbol of the femininity that men cannot comprehend.

Garbo never gave interviews, signed autographs, did not attend the premieres of her films and did not respond to fan letters. She lived alone in New York for half a century, avoiding reporters and going out wearing dark glasses covering her face. The great actress remained the “mysterious Garbo.” And only a few authors managed to tell everything about her numerous love affairs. This book is a sensation about the personal life of a star of world cinema of the twentieth century.
