After telling me it was no longer available, the inter library distribution system sent me a well-loved copy of this charming little book. There‘s even a painting he did of turkeys that I‘d never seen before.

I read this graphic novel at the start of the year. It's a great biography on Monet's life and career, done in the impressionist style and mimicking some of his most famous works. A beautiful rendering of a passionate life 🪷

'The novel ends with one of the most reverberating shocks in modern crime fiction.'
Well I guess the problem is with me then. The twist at the end really is neat, but I didn't enjoy the whole of the book. Instead of being intrigued and interested I was mostly annoyed and frustrated. I didn't like the detective and I wasn't much impressed with the writing (maybe the translation wasn't the best either). ⬇️

The Monet exhibit was wonderful!
