The Artist Kindle Edition

3.8 out of 5 stars 17 ratings

A sketch in prose of an artistic young woman torn between love and obsession - a novella
* * *
A young art student is thrilled when she gets the job of a lifetime on the northeastern coast of Italy. The glorious estate of J.K. Renghal, a wealthy and successful artist who had made great waves in the international art world, filled his palace with unique chambers for his art and music. There seemed to be no end to his creativity or versatility. The gathering of young art enthusiasts who came to work there simply added to the composition.
Experiencing the world through the eyes of the artist unexpectedly shapes the student's attitude toward life.

    This is a very short little novella that can easily be read in one sitting, but despite being small, it is packed full of beautiful storytelling. From the very real and relatable characters, to the visually stunning descriptions of the art and exhibits, you are swept away into a story that feels as real and possible as it seems fantastical.

    I think the thing that really made this story sink home the most is that it's so relatable. It takes you through emotional ups and downs, the feeling of living real life, and experiencing hopes, love, sadness, and making mistakes. The story itself has you hooked from page one, but then it rewards you with the kind of ending that you just long for in a story. I don't want to give the big spoiler at the end away in a review, but let me just say that it is SO SATISFYING that I actually teared up as I read it!

    I really hope you give this story a read. It's sort and sweet, romantic and artistic, and beautifully written. I can safely say that since getting it, I've read it at least five times. And it draws me in every single time.

    I enjoyed this well written book tremendously. The characters were believable and the plot kept my interest. When I got to the end of the book, I was surprised at the way the author wrapped it up. The ending made complete sense, but I didn't see it coming! I would like to read more books by this author.

    Wow this book..., though a fast and fictional read, was loaded. I suddenly cried upon putting it down because not only was it well-written, complete and full of real life experiences and wisdom, I identified greatly with this story. It really captured the journey of the soul throughout life while at the same time being a lighthearted enjoyable read. The plot was a satisfying and profound and what you wanted all along -without being contrived. It is well worth the read and I look forward to more books by the author.
