The journalist Michelle Young has written a gorgeous, thoughtful review of The Case of the Disappearing Gauguin. You can find it in Hyperallergic, here: https://hyperallergic.com/954234/how-a-gauguin-painting-went-from-real-to-lost-to-fake-stephanie-a-brown/.
What's Hyperallergic? It's an online "forum for playful, serious, and radical perspectives on art in society" that reaches--so they say--"over one million visitors monthly." Playful and serious: I am on board. Radical: as a wise woman has said, it is hard to speak truth to power when you're a people pleaser. Read Michelle's article and decide for yourself if my perspective is a radical one.
PS: I'm still signing bookplates! Email me your postal address and I'll send you a sticker.
PPS: I understand that the book is backordered til mid-October. I have no idea whether that means it's selling well or whether it means that the initial print run was 45. In any case, when you order yours be sure to use discount code RLFANDF30.
PPPS: The ordering portion of the website is glitchy. It will take you a few tries.
