"I Always Loved You" by Robin Oliveira is a novel that follows the life and work of two of the 19th centuries greatest artists: Mary Cassatt and Edgar Degas. Cassatt is an American who went to Paris to paint and Degas was already there, famous, and full of opinions. It starts at their meeting and follows them and their crowd full of artists throughout their lives until the death of Degas.
I really loved this book. It "paints" the imagery and turns the novel into a work of art itself. Cassatt is one of my favorites and this book brings her to life. I recommend this novel to anyone who loves art, Paris, or color in their life.
I received this book in exchange for an honest review from netgalley.com.
