Life with Picasso
Customer Review: A wonderful insight into real life with Picasso
This book follows the decade or so that Francoise Gilot and Picasso were lovers, and covers their day-to-day lives, their discussions on art, their friends (Matisse, Gertrude Stein, Braque etc) and their children (Paloma and Claude). It’s a wonderful biography, beautifully written and very evocative. You admire Francoise for sticking with Picasso for so long and are amazed at the genius that he was.

A great read whether or not you are interested in Picasso and his art.

As an artist and a personality, Pablo Picasso resembled the Hindu god Shiva, “the destroyer of worlds,” intent on outraging orthodoxy and defying tradition whenever possible. So it’s ironic and even amusing to watch as “Surviving Picasso” turns his Continue

Picasso and the Girl with a Ponytail (Great Artists) Customer Review: Lovely book with an engaging true story
My five year old daughter received this for Christmas this year, and was utterly delighted with the story. Not too many words on each page, and beautiful illustrations, it immediately piqued her interest in this artist. So much so, we looked online to view some of his masterpieces and she has had to give his style a go. Suitable to read a child of at least 5, and the aproximate reading alone level of a 7-8 year old. We also have the Da Vinci book in this series and are looking forward to getting the others. A most excellent introduction for children!

Picasso
Customer Review: The Most Unusual Biography Ever?
One of the most engaging, stylistically intriguing and honest books I’ve ever read. Stein’s writing is impatient, brusque, passionate and scarily insightful. She offers a real sense of Picasso - the man and the artist - as well as of Gertrude Stein herself. It also provides a tantalising glimpse into the wonderful, romantic life enjoyed by writers, artists and their cronies in early twentieth century Paris. Brilliant. If you care at all about art; life; Picasso; the notion of genius; Paris; indeed, creative or intellectual pursuits of any kind, then your life will be slightly less if you fail to read this book.

The Picasso Scam (Detective Inspector Charlie Priest Mystery) Customer Review: First in the Charlie Priest Series

Stuart Pawson had a career as a mining engineer He followed this with a spell working for the probation service, before he became a full-time writer. He lives in the pleasant waterside village of Fairburn in Yorkshire.

The plot revolves around a now well respected businessman, a pillar of the community everyone might say. That is everyone except Inspector Charlie Priest who has more than an inkling that he was involved in international art fraud. But if he takes his suspicions to the limit he is taking on an enemy with friends in high places.

Charlie Priest is not one to be put off by a man’s status in society and when he comes up with a link with heroin, not threat, no matter from what source or how high up is going to stop him. Art fraud is one thing pedaling lethal drugs is another . . .

Customer Review: A great start
A great start to a very enjoyable set of DI Charlie Priest novels. Plausable story lines with nice “one liners” that make you smile and occasionally laugh out loud. Highly recommend these books to anyone looking for a good read.
