The Agony and the Ecstasy by Irving Stone

5.0

Wow. Truly an incredible read. The detail is amazing, and Michelangelo's passion for carving statues is portrayed brilliantly. It was written well enough to evoke feelings of joy, frustration, irritation, desperation, and amusement. It's inspiring to walk through the life of one of the greatest artists of all time, especially when it's told so well. Fantastic read!
