| Struggling artist Claude Monet''s life was irrevocably changed when he met the beautiful and mysterious Camille Doucieux. Through years of painting, misunderstanding, and love, they carve out a life together, but can Camille ever escape her past? |
Annotation:
Stephanie Cowell provides an Impressionist sketch of the life and love of Claude Monet and his wife Camille Doniceaux, capturing the complex mix of passion and anguish which fueled his genius. Although Monet experiences a singular love for Camille from the moment he sees her, he often allows his art and his career to eclipse his commitment to her as he and his friends Claude Renoir, Paul Cézanne, Edouard Manet, and Paul Pissarro struggle for acceptance from the staid art world.

Praise
"Stephanie Cowell is nothing short of masterful in writing about Claude Monet's life and love....[She] vividly portrays not just the couple and their life together, but their time and place, their world. She writes in language that is simple, elegant, and extraordinarily evocative. This is a novel of friendship as well as love."
