The Lost Notebook of Edouard Manet
The Lost Notebook of Edouard Manet: A Novel
by Maureen Gibbon
Imagined diary entries (7/18/2021)
I'm not sure how I feel about the book. It is, if course, a work of fiction based upon a few years at the end of Edouard Manet's life. He suffered from the effects of syphilis. There are a few passages on his artistic process; I wish there had been more. It would be interesting mainly to students of Manet.
