HOW TO PAINT A DEAD MAN

Italy in the early 1960s: starting his last life painting, a dying painter considers the sacrifices and losses that have made him an enigma, both to strangers and those closest to him.

In Cumbria thirty years later, a landscape artist—and admirer of the Italian recluse—finds himself trapped in the extreme terrain that has made him famous. And in present-day London, his daughter, an art curator struggling with the sudden loss of her twin brother while trying to curate an exhibition about the lives of the twentieth-century European masters, is drawn into a world of darkness and sexual abandon.
