The Art of Us: A Novel of Love, Art, and Resistance in 1950s Paris

AUTHOR Ilunjo, Joe
PUBLISHER Independently Published (02/16/2025)
PRODUCT TYPE Paperback (Paperback)

Description
DescriptionParis, 1955. Isabelle Duval paints the city's soul onto canvas, her quiet life upended when Pierre Moreau-a brash artist with Marseille salt in his veins-walks into her world. Together, they build a gallery of dreams, only to find their love tested by a shadowy patron whose obsession with art hides a deadly secret.

As Franco's regime bleeds into Barcelona, a fiery Spanish painter, Sofia Márquez, seeks refuge in their gallery, her crimson-stained canvases exposing a past she can't escape. But when a forged portrait implicates Sofia in fascist atrocities, Isabelle and Pierre must choose: protect their friend or salvage their crumbling legacy. From the ashes of a burned mural to the glittering lies of Paris' elite, their journey crescendos in a deadly game of truth and betrayal.

Perfect for fans of The Nightingale and The Paris Wife, The Art of Us is a sweeping saga of love, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bond between art and resistance. Can a masterpiece outlive its maker-or will the serpent of greed devour them all?
