Contre-Jour: A triptych after Pierre Bonnard

Gabriel Josipovici's acclaimed novel reissued in 2018.

Josipovici's novel is based on the life of Pierre Bonnard, the painter of enchanting domestic interiors and innocently unsensual nudes. A thoughtful and deeply felt piece told in three parts from the perspectives of Bonnard's wife, daughter, and the painter himself.

The publisher is currently reprinting this title, reissuing it with a new cover ahead of the Pierre Bonnard exhibition, "The Colour of Memory," scheduled at Tate Modern, London (Jan-May 2019).
