Portraits In Fiction
Portraits seem the opposite of fiction, fixed in time and space, not running with the curve of a story or a life. Yet, writers have been fascinated by portraits as icons, as motifs, as images of character and evocations of past times. This book delves into the complex relations between portraits and characters, and novels, as whole works of art.
