Produktbeschreibung

'Substantial, moving and beautifully written' - Independent on Sunday
'A love story with the grip and suspense of a thriller.' - Times Literary Supplement

In 1975 art historian Leo Hertzberg discovers an extraordinary painting by an unknown artist in a New York gallery. He buys the work, tracks down its creator, Bill Weschler, and the two men embark on a life-long friendship.

This is the story of their intense and trouble relationship, of the women in their lives and their work, of art and hysteria, love and seduction and their sons - born the same year but whose lives take very different paths.
