How to Paint a Dead Man
The lives of four individuals—a dying painter, a blind girl, a landscape artist, and an art curator—intertwine across nearly five decades in this luminous and searching novel of extraordinary power. With How to Paint a Dead Man, Sarah Hall, one of the most significant and exciting of Britain's young novelists (The Guardian), delivers a maddeningly enticing read . . . an amazing feat of literary engineering (The Independent on Sunday).
