I’ve just finished reading Martyr by Kaveh Akhbar and poor artists by the white pube women. I am obsessed with art and love reading so these two hit some high notes for me. Similarly art adjacent books I have loved:
The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt
The Flanders panel by Arturo Pérez-Reverte
Any other ideas? 💡
