I read this in the dove of roughly 24hours! Granted we are all home with CoVid, but still I thought it was a page turner.
I went in not being sure it it was my kind of book. I thought it was just going to be the tale of a mopey woman running around Europe but it was so much more than that.
The characters are very real and are confronted with their obstacles and life difficulties and through art they begin go heal and find some comfort.
There’s a good bit of information about art history without it becoming boring. It also touches on the AIDS crisis in the 80s, changing roles of women and family dynamics as well as how legitimate different ways of learning as well as coping are.
It was a very easy and entertaining read with depth too it.
