I’m looking for novels or short stories about artists residencies, writers retreats etc. The main characters should be tucked away somewhere, learning about and settling into a new place, meeting other artists, and working on their craft. Any kind of art will do.
I’m reading Arabesques by Anton Shammas and really love the writer’s residency plot, but its not the main story. I also read Painting Time by Maylis de Kerangal and loved it, though it not exactly right as the main character is in a school/program. But I would accept something like this also. Thanks!
