Description
The Improbability of Love by Hannah Rothschild A darkly comedic and exquisitely written novel, this book is a meditation on the true value of art. When Annie McDee stumbles upon a lost eighteenth-century masterpiece in a junk shop, she unwittingly becomes embroiled in the tumultuous world of London's art scene. As she delves into the painting's past, she uncovers secrets of European history and may just learn to open up to the possibility of falling in love again. Annie's journey takes her into a world of avaricious Sheikas, desperate auctioneers, and unscrupulous dealers, all scheming to get their hands on the painting. With its eye-catching detail and wicked satire, this novel is a masterpiece of comedic fiction. A BBC Radio 2 Book Club pick, this book has been praised for its ingenious storytelling and shimmering prose.
