Review:
This is not just another book with a Vermer on the dust jacket...[but] an illuminating meditation on the nature of art....This beautifully imagined and written book...is a work of art itself (Sunday Telegraph)
'Susan Vreeland's...imaginitive, deeply moving triumph' Ms London
Subtle and atmospheric...an impressive debut. (Publishers Weekly)
Intelligent, searching and unusual, the novel is filled with luminous moments; like the painting it describes so well, it has a way of lingering in the reader's mind (Katy Emck, New York Times Review of Books)
