SAND HILL REVIEW PRESS

Always a good read!

Janet Magill’s brother has been shipped to Vietnam, and Aaron Becker, her childhood sweetheart, might well be next. When Janet’s parents banish her from the Berkeley protests to what they expect will be a safe, idyllic springtime in Paris, she runs headlong into the 1968 May Revolution and falls in love with a secretive Czech dissident. Far from the City of Light, Aaron makes plans to evade the draft and join her, but loses contact as her "safe" year abroad turns into a dangerous coming of age.

Portraits of an Artist

By Mary F. Burns

“An evocative rendering of the great portraitist, John Singer Sargent, as seen through the eyes of the subjects of his most famous paintings. A tour de force of historical and psychological imagination.”
— Paula Marantz Cohen, author of What Alice Knew, & Jane Austen in Scarsdale

Portraits of an Artist

From 1882 to 1884, John Singer Sargent painted his greatest masterpieces—the Daughters of Edward Darley Boit and Madame X—haunting portraits with dark psychological depths. The first unconsciously revealed a secret that would cause great anguish in his private life; the other created a social scandal that drove him from Paris forever. Portraits of an Artist brings to life the subjects of Sargent’s paintings—his family, friends, enemies and lovers—to tell his story from their own perspectives.
