«Art & Lies» is Jeanette Winterson's literary fiction novel, published by Vintage Books in paperback (208 pages, in English).
In a near-future London, Handel, Picasso and Sappho flee separately and meet on a train, drawn by a book. Intertwined stories hark back to the eighteenth-century love affairs of Doll Sneerpiece and to a world where language heals; art and lies merge in a reflection on love and beauty.
The full title is «Art & Lies: A Piece for Three Voices and a Bawd». The work was published in 1995.
For readers of literary fiction and contemporary narrative interested in the work of Jeanette Winterson and in queer themes and art.
