An interesting read to say at least. I know nothing about art and painting but we all know or heard stories about artists that live in their own world and they are always moody and self absorbed,the fact that some of them have no inhibitions or have to use alcohol and other substances for their creativity to occur to the next news about their bodies found out of life and always the mystery around them.
The story is compelling and told only from the point of view of our heroine that has no name, I for one found it odd but interesting as well.
As a young artist who wants to make a break through the well known art society, we get to know a lot about how she struggles to become one, being unemployed and homeless, how her obsession with another woman artist grow so much to the point of living her life after said artist passed away.
A lot of new terms and interesting small things about art life to find in this book for which I was grateful to learn about.
