{"product_id":"paris-red-a-novel","title":"Paris Red: A Novel","description":"For readers of Girl with a Pearl Earring, a \"beautiful, brilliant, delicious\" (Elizabeth McCracken) novel about Edouard Manet’s muse.\nParis, 1862. A young girl in a threadbare dress and green boots, hungry for experience, meets the mysterious and wealthy artist Édouard Manet. The encounter will change her―and the art world―forever.\nAt seventeen, Victorine Meurent abandons her old life to become immersed in the Parisian society of dance halls and cafés, meeting writers and artists like Baudelaire and Alfred Stevens. As Manet’s model, Victorine explores a world of new possibilities and stirs the artist to push the boundaries of painting in his infamous portrait Olympia, which scandalizes even the most cosmopolitan city.\nManet becomes himself because of Victorine. But who does she become, that figure on the divan?\nIntense, erotic, and beautifully wrought, Paris Red evokes the unconventional love story of a painter and his muse that changed the history of art.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0393352234\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0393352234.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Gibbon, Maureen\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
