5.0 out of 5 stars A must for the true Elton fan!, December 7, 1998
By A Customer
Flower Fantasies lets the average joe take a peek into one of the world's most beloved star's homes, while being struck with awe and glory. My jaw dropped when I saw the stunning full color glossy photos of each corner of his London house and his Windsor home (2 of the 4 he lives in!!) This book is a study in style, with descriptive and sensitive passages relating to the photographs, at the same time explaining each object's and room's relation to Elton's own life. Those interested in design and those that love Elton will love this book. It satisfies not only from a design standpoint, but it has a fanatic quality, also. I highly recommend this book. You will be amazed by the illustration of the grand, yet humble life that is led by this man. You will be so struck by the beauty of this book that you will not be able to put it down! Buy it! PS-Flowers, flowers and more flowers than one could EVER imagine!

5.0 out of 5 stars High-life houses for an aristocrat., May 17, 2000
By 
www.delalonde.com "www.chateauresidence.com" (Chateau-Bois-Briand, Nantes,Loire-Valley,France) - See all my reviews
Elton John is an aristocrat, not only because the Queen said so. He demonstrates this in every day life, in the way he admits his weaknesses, in his involvement for beautiful causes. His house on French Riviera is a jewell. It's almost "too much". But "too much" is never enough for Elton. Thanks to the great pictures from this book you will discover a yellow castle between blue sky, deep blue sea and green grass. White structure of the house creates a contrast with blue, green and yellow. These colours could have been chosen by David Hockney. Original style of this house was respected. Flowers are every where. Furniture is on line with the overall "villegiature" style. Don't dream "too much", this "Saint-Jean Cap-Ferrat" life-style has a price. But who talked about money, here? Not Elton, for sure. This is, again, a demonstration of the noble qualities of that man. Never in the whole book, you will find any decoration detail that could make you think it is here to impress people or to demonstrate power. What a paradox! this modern excentric, in the tradition on XVIIIth century english excentricity, never looks arrogant. None of his crazy demonstrations of "luxe" make you feel bad. The Atlanta house is more interesting because of the beautiful furniture and made to order closets for collections of ... everything. This book is a tribute to pleasure, good taste (yes!) and high-life. I learned this word from Johnny Weissmuller in Acapulco (pie de la cuesta beach), just before he died. I think it is quite appropriate to describe what these houses are made for.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful coffee-table book., April 16, 1999
By A Customer
Excellent pictorial of an extravagant livestyle! Hard to belive, though, that there is a gross misprint on page 16-- the lyrics from "Your Song" are attributed to "Mona Lisa & Mad Hatters"! Oops!
