What I'm reading ...

I have started Notes from an Exhibition by Patrick Gale. I rarely read two books by an author in quick succession, but this is the second time that I have read one of Gale’s books and immediately wanted to read another. Here’s the blurb:

Celebrated artist Rachel Kelly dies alone in her Penzance studio, after decades of struggling with the creative highs and devastating lows that have coloured her life. Her family gathers, each of them searching for answers. They reflect on lives shaped by the enigmatic Rachel - as artist, wife and mother - and on the ambiguous legacies she leaves them, of talent, torment and transcendent love.
