A Piece of the World: A Novel
by Christina Baker Kline
Pictures Come to Life (12/22/2016)
I've long lived with a copy of "Master Bedroom" by Andrew Wyeth hanging in my home. I am compelled to look at it each time I pass by.

A Piece of the World takes us even deeper into that world, bringing not only the artist, but his subjects into sharp focus. Ms. Kline draws the stark, yet changeable, landscapes (both geographic and personal) with words that resonate.

This isn't a deep book, but it's a great read and highly enjoyable.
