«Van Gogh ou l'enterrement dans les blés» is the biographical essay by Viviane Forrester, published by Seuil in paperback (352 pages, in French).
Viviane Forrester explores the life and work of Vincent van Gogh from a decisive biographical fact: the painter was born a year after an elder brother, also named Vincent, who died at birth. That sense of occupying another's place and his relationship with Théo articulate this portrait of the artist.
The text originally appeared in 1983; this 1992 edition belongs to the Points Essais collection (number 252) and includes a preface by Chantal Thomas.
It is aimed at readers of biographical essays and art criticism interested in Vincent van Gogh.
Viviane Forrester was an essayist, novelist, journalist and literary critic.
