This translation originally published: London: Weidenfeld & Nicolson, 2007

Intense and turbulent, this is a book about war, love and the human capacity for both violence and empathy. It asks very profound questions about human nature and the role of the artists, but it also has the intensity of a psychological thriller as the painter trades stories with the man who has come to kill him.
