Cricket is just a shy kid who likes drawing when he first meets Olympia. She's older, more confident; she bullies him into some light vandalism and instantly he's in love. When they're together, they talk about their futures, how they're going to travel the world, the beauty and rapture of art. Then those futures start to arrive in unexpected ways, the years and decades pile up between them, the art world seduces and disappoints and frustrates them. And they have to figure out, again and again, what it is to be an artist, and who and what to love.
'I've seldom read a book so engaging as Contrapposto'
PHILIP PULLMAN
'An earthy, warm return to form . . . A novel of ideas, exploring the meaning of art and the unfairness, pretensions and occasional skullduggery of the art world'
New York Times
'A portrait of an artist as a young man . . . Eggers gives us, generously and precisely, clear and bright, a story about why we create, and how we love'
TOMMY ORANGE
'Extraordinary . . . a lucid and passionate Künstlerroman and a drawing of the negative space around the contemporary art world'
LAUREN GROFF
