emberology 's review for:

Kiki de Montparnasse by Catel, José-Louis Bocquet
2.0

Kiki was a gorgeous woman, and considering the artists she was consorting with, I was expecting a more experimental style. Sure, this is a biography, and I did like some of the more detailed backgrounds, but maybe a bit more unusual approach art-wise would have made Kiki's world a bit more multifaceted. The relationship between artists and their muses could also have been explored a bit more. The whole thing just fell flat for me, even though it wasn't bad per se.
