How to Be Both by Ali Smith

5.0

This book consists of two parts - one part is about a girl who lost her mother and the other is about an Italian painter from the Renaissance period. I love the interconnectedness of the parts. What I love about this book is more than that, though. I'm still unsure what exactly it is about this book that fascinates me, but that fact, in itself, already gives me the goosebumps.. OMG. There is something about loss, blurring of conventions, art, and self-realisation that just resonates with me.
