A short, illustrated rumination on the work of Edvard Munch through nineteen paintings and drawings. It’s as if we’re looking over the acclaimed novelist’s shoulder as she looks intently at a sequence of images, guided by her dead mother’s voice showing and questioning, Virgil to her Dante. Ideas wreath like smoke. Beautifully published by the Munch Museum in Oslo.
