Description: The Matisse Stories by A.S. Byatt Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description From the Booker Prize-winning author of Possession come three intensely observed, beautifully written stories, each inspired by a painting of Henri Matisse, each revealing the intimate connection between seeing and feeling. In A.S. Byatts hands, these tableaux come to life, exposing the unruliness of grief, desire and creativity. Publisher Description Three delightful stories inspired by a painting of Henri Matisse—from the Booker Prize-winning author of Possession and "a writer of dazzling inventiveness" (Time)."[An] exquisite triptych.... Richly drawn and touches upon things that matter to people." —People These stories celebrate the eye even as they reveal its unexpected proximity to the heart. For if each of A.S. Byatts narratives is in some way inspired by a painting of Henri Matisse, each is also about the intimate connection between seeing and feeling—about the ways in which a glance we meant to be casual may suddenly call forth the deepest reserves of our being. Beautifully written, intensely observed, The Matisse Stories is fiction of spellbinding authority."Full of delight and humor.... The Matisse Stories is studded with brilliantly apt images and a fine sense for subtleties of conversation and emotion." —San Francisco Chronicle Author Biography A. S. Byatt was the author of numerous novels, including The Childrens Book, The Biographers Tale, and Possession, which was awarded the Booker Prize. She also wrote two novellas, published together as Angels & Insects, five collections of short stories, and several works of nonfiction. A distinguished critic and author, and the recipient of the 2016 Erasmus Prize for her "inspiring contribution to life writing," she died in 2023.
