Sceptre books "When Professor Hess stumbles across an unusual letter to the editor in an art journal, he is surprised to have known so little about the brilliant and mysterious artist it describes, the late Harriet Burden. Intrigued by her story, and by the explosive scandal surrounding her legacy, he begins to interview those who knew her, hoping to separate fact from fiction, only to find himself tumbling down a rabbit's hole of personal and psychological intrigue. Before she died, Harriet had claimed credit for three shows of contemporary art that had been the biggest sensations of the previous decade, sending the critics into a tailspin, since no one had even thought to connect the three shows before. The sculptures and paintings, while all of unquestionable quality, would seem to have nothing in common, and of the three young male artists who presented the work, one has fled the country, another isn't talking to anyone, and the third appears to have committed suicide--though not before denouncing Harriet to the world. So was Harriet Burden one of the greatest artists--male or female--in recent memory, having masterminded a puppet show of grand proportions, or was she a washed-up has-been looking for glory on others' coattails? As Hess seeks to solve the puzzle, he soon finds everyone has a different story to tell, and that nothing, and no one, is as it seems. With a playfully intricate narrative structure, flawless prose, and fierce emotional insight, award-winning novelist Siri Hustvedt takes us into the heart of human nature, exposing our prejudices and preconceptions about ambition, feminism, and the complex psychology of love"-- Erwachsene Death Fiction Teachers Fiction Women artists Fiction Psychological fiction Fiktionale Darstellung gnd-content u Gesellschaft libib XB u Künstler libib XB u HU 9800 idslu LR u HU 9800 HuSi idslu LV BK020000 XK020000 XK020000 Metadata rights reserved rero Metadata rights reserved vaud 593 IDS LU be FL RERO RE01003 RE01003 RE010030001 NA 2014.1813 RERO RE11002 RE11002 RE110020041 HUST Fiction VAUD bcur bcur RMA 75413 810020020 VAUD bcud bcud USA 17974 820(73)"19"(082)AUT 810010047 BISCH SHAGN SHAGN F E HUST englisch LIBIB FLLB FLLB ER A-Z HUSTVEDT ENG NELFLLB1409 IDSLU LUZHB LUZHB ZBFRE HU 9800 HuSi-02 2014 ABN AKB AKB AKBMA AKB 101880 RERO 100 1- Hustvedt Siri 1955- (IDREF)032019823 cre RERO 490 0- Sceptre books VAUD 100 1- Hustvedt Siri aut VAUD 490 0- Sceptre books IDSLU 100 1- Hustvedt Siri ABN 100 1- Hustvedt Siri LIBIB 100 1- Hustvedt Siri BISCH 100 1- Hustvedt Siri SWISSBIB 317046764
