Tales of my heart
Never forget who you are and where you came from
|| Hardcover || Letitcia Stoc || Brave New Books
When I was little I started writing stories about how I felt.
I wrote for hours sometimes days.
Sometimes I couldn't seem to find the words.

A magnificent new biography of the founder of Impressionism
In the course of a long and exceptionally creative life, Claude Monet revolutionized painting and made some of the most iconic images in western art. Misunderstood and mocked at the beginning of his career, he risked everything to pursue his original vision. Although close to starvation when he invented impressionism on the banks of the Seine in the 1860s-70s, in the following decades he emerged as the powerful leader of the new pain...
