<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A bestselling author returns with a vivid exploration of one of the most beloved paintings in history: Renoirs "Luncheon of the Boating Party."<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>From the bestelling author of GIRL IN HYACINTH BLUE</b>, <b>A vivid exploration of one of the most beloved Renoir paintings in the world, done with a flourish worthy of Renoir himself (<i>USA Today</i>)</b> <p/> With her richly textured novels, Susan Vreeland has offered pioneering portraits of artists' lives. As she did in <i>Girl in Hyacinth Blue</i>, Vreeland focuses on a single painting, Auguste Renoir's instantly recognizable masterpiece, which depicts a gathering of Renoir's real friends enjoying a summer Sunday on a café terrace along the Seine. Narrated by Renoir and seven of the models, the novel illuminates the gusto, hedonism, and art of the era. With a gorgeous palette of vibrant, captivating characters, Vreeland paints their lives, loves, losses, and triumphs so vividly that the painting literally comes alive (<i>The Boston Globe</i>).<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>?Vreeland's most ambitious book yet.?<BR> ?"The Philadelphia Inquirer" <BR><BR> ?If a trip to Paris is a bit outside of your price range, Vreeland's new novel is the next best thing.?<BR> ?"Parade" <BR><BR> ?A masterwork.?<BR> ?"The San Diego Union-Tribune" <BR><BR> ?Exquisitely wrought . . . this summer's most satisfying historical novel.?<BR> ?"The Seattle Times" <BR><BR> ?Vreeland takes the big bold brush strokes of Renoir's personal and artistic oeuvre and displays them with her usual vividness in this eponymous novel. . . .
