This short story focuses on JMW Turner, Britain’s greatest landscape painter. In planning the structure of the story the author has imagined a fabric with key sections as warps. These include an eclectic mix of information related to particular aspects of Turner’s domestic and artistic life and experience. Through these warps she has woven a fictitious weft—a fragmented narrative which mirrors some of her own preoccupations.
‘ A brilliantly sustained postmodern exploration of art, literature and life. [The novella] has a breathless energy and an audacious variety, which makes it compulsive reading. In summary, it is a work of technical audacity, original, witty and very entertaining.’
