A review by debr
The Last Painting of Sara de Vos by Dominic Smith

5.0

This book, like its subject, is a masterpiece. The technique of tying together time periods by moving between past and present chapters is a highly used, and sometimes can feel overused, method, but in this book it is so beautifully and lovingly accomplished I can hardly think of a better example of this approach. Smith is an accomplished storyteller and gifted writer, and makes each of his major characters come to life completely as individuals. Such a great read.
