Synopsis

A painter’s studio becomes the arena for passion, art, and the fragile ties of love. In a bustling New York world, Basil’s portraits collide with Teresa’s fierce will and Isabel Perry’s seductive presence, driving a charged exploration of ambition, fame, and devotion.

Across intimate conversations and vivid studio scenes, the characters wrestle with art’s demand, personal loss, and the costs of living a life that looks glamorous from the outside but feels unstable from within.

• Experience tense conversations that probe art, beauty, and the worth of a life spent in pursuit of craft.


• Watch a marriage tested by illness, grief, and competing loyalties as characters seek a place to call home.


• See the clash between raw, brutal realism in artwork and the traditional romantic ideals of beauty.


• Follow shifting power dynamics, longing, and the push-pull of independence and dependence.

Ideal for readers who enjoy character-driven fiction set in the art world and a period atmosphere that blends creativity with personal consequence.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

She moved abruptly and said with a plaintive air: Do you know, I think Im tired. Id like to rest a little now. Oh, of course I beg your pardon, Im afraid I wasnt thinking of the time, he said quickly, but still hovering before his canvas he splashed in another touch or two of violet colour and then stood back, frowning, and blinking his eyes as though suddenly roused. Have we been at it very long? Hours, I think, said the lady, smiling and stretching her arms languidly. It sgone well to-day, hasnt it? Awfully well. But Im afraid Ive been a brute, keeping you at it so. He laid down his brushes and looked at his watch. By Jove, its nearly five! Why didnt you speak before? Oh, I hated to interrupt, you seemed so interested. And I was interested, too, watching your face. But I should like some tea now.
