Out Now in Ebook and Hardback: Ghost Stories, Siri Hustvedt's Remarkable New Memoir LONGLISTED FOR THE WOMEN'S PRIZE FOR FICTION With an introduction by Megan Nolan 'Siri Hustvedt's most ambitious, most rewarding novel. It mesmerises, arouses, disturbs' Salman Rushdie 'Defiantly complex and frequently dazzling' Sunday Times 'A big, wide, sensuous novel - clever, sinister, yet attractively real' Guardian 'A love story with the grip and suspense of a thriller' Times Literary Supplement In 1975 art historian Leo Hertzberg discovers an extraordinary painting in a New York gallery. He buys the work, tracks down the artist, Bill Wechsler, and embarks on a life-long friendship with him. This is the story of their intense and troubled relationship. Of the women in their lives and their work, of art and love, loss and betrayal - and of their sons, born the same year but whose lives take very different paths. 'Superb . . . What I Loved is a rare thing, a page turner written at full intellectual stretch, serious but witty, large-minded and morally engaged' New York Times
