Art and Lies centres around three figures with famous names; Handel, Picasso, and Sappho. Set in some modern-like time, Handel turns out to be a physician and while Picasso is a painter she is also a woman bearing little resemblance to her namesake.
It is a rich book, bawdy and beautiful, shocking because of its beauty, an antidote against the numbness of modern life.
