Riassunto

Gabriel Josipovici's acclaimed novel reissued in 2018.

Josipovici's novel is based on the life of Pierre Bonnard, the painter of enchanting domestic interiors and innocently unsensual nudes. A thoughtful and deeply felt piece told in three parts from the perspectives of Bonnard's wife, daughter, and the painter himself.

The publisher is currently reprinting this title, reissuing it with a new cover ahead of the Pierre Bonnard exhibition, "The Colour of Memory," scheduled at Tate Modern, London (Jan-May 2019).
