Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“North’s engrossing second novel portrays with painful clarity the life of a flawed but highly talented artist.” —Library Journal (starred review)
“As taut and artistically ambitious as its title character, North’s novel upends the trope of the lone, tortured genius, considering instead the deeply human consequences of one person’s uncompromising vision.” —Booklist
“An engaging exploration of what it takes to make art and, more importantly, what it takes to love those who make it.” —Kirkus Reviews
“A fierce, page-turning, exposé of a would-be/could-be bright star. ‘Friends,’ former flames, and critics paint a portrait of an elusive cult filmmaker and the bridges she burned along the way.” —Marie Claire
Norths engrossing second novel portrays with painful clarity the life of a flawed but highly talented artist. —Library Journal Starred Review
