June 2008: Mass-market paperback released in UK


 


»
A bold reimagining of the short, frenetic life of Egon Schiele, Crofts's debut doesn't shrink from depicting the squalor of his existence and powerfully evokes his uncompromising talent.«

 

»This book is thoroughly researched, and Schiele's short life and the morals of Austro-Hungarian society are well described. The author is bewitched by his subject's decadence and by the period's historical detail.«

»Utterly engrossing. I found myself drawn into Schiele's reeling world with its reek of wet paint and sex.«Jon McGregor, Somerset Maugham Award winner

»Confidently imagined. insightful. Crofts has written a sparkling debut that is as enlightening as it is entertaining.«
