Disappointing

I'd heard great things about the author but I felt the book was a little confused and the characters unconvincing. The main strength was an intriguing storyline which kept me guessing through to the end. The book's title suggests the book was also somehow about the creative process but that fell rather flat for me. We were told what / who inspired the art without really getting it from the artist's perspective. The parallel story of a writer seeking inspiration 30 years later simply petered out.Read full review

Intriguing and evocative

The book transports you to two times and locations with equal clarity and the narrative is compelling with believable characters.
