I truly enjoyed this book, another great little surprise from Europa Editions. This beautiful, sad, wise yet ultimately hopeful novel surrounds a woman born around 1915 and raised by her eccentric, artistic, very non traditional (for the time) grandparents in the Midlands, England. She becomes a painter at a young age and the story follows her losses during WWII, her loves, travels and creative life into her 70s. The passages about creating are oustanding. I am a painter and there were times I felt she captured EXACTLY what it feels like (to me anyway) to emote through art, struggle and bring it all to a canvas. The protagonist is a wonderful character, complex, who can laugh at herself; and the "supporting cast" are great. This is simply a beautiful book that has a lot to say about art, love and life. To say much more would take away much of its magic. Highly recommended, especially for anyone interested in the creative process.

Tutto è visto e descritto attraverso una tavolozza di colori; non solo le descrizioni del paesaggio, ma anche quelle dei personaggi sono vere e proprie ipotiposi. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
