| Other text | This magical biography … is a suitably sybaritic book. Really you should read it on a terrace with a glass of something pink … You come away with a clearer picture not only of Monet … but a generation of artists; you understand Renoir, Sisley, Pissarro, Degas, Cézanne and the dawn of impressionism better for the light that Wullschläger shines on it all … Usually when reviewing a big biography I feel relieved at the end. This time I felt bereft … This is a book to be savoured like an orange candied in honey … It's an intoxicating read. |
