Gabriele by Anne Berest is a General Fiction Paperback Book.

The passionate love affair that triggered a revolution, and the story of a remarkable woman living in extraordinary times An atmospheric, exuberant novel about love and sex, art and revolution, ex-perimentation and creativity from the best-selling author of The Postcard, Anne Berest, and her sister, the acclaimed novelist Claire Berest, based on the life of their great grandmother. The year is 1908, the height of the Belle Epoque, and a brilliant, young French woman named Gabriele, newly graduated from the most elite music school in Europe, meets a volcanic Spanish artist named Francis. Following a whirl-wind romance, they marry and fall headlong into a Paris that is experimenting with new forms of living, thinking, and creating. Soon after marrying Fran-cis, Gabriele meets Marcel, another young artist, five years her junior. Soon, Francis, Marcel, and Gabriele are all three involved in a fervent affair that will change the course of art history and redefine the avant-garde. Surreal-ism, Dada, and Abstraction are among the new artistic practices and new ideas that emerge from this electric love triangle in the following decade, during which the Belle Epoque sours and the world descends into the devastation of World War I. Francis Picabia, Marcel Duchamp, and Gabriele Buffet-the pro-tagonists of this brilliantly imagined "true novel"-are vividly reimagined by the Berests. Moving between Paris, New York, Berlin, Zurich, Barcelona, and Saint-Tropez, Gabriele is as audacious, uninhibited, and unforgettable as its central character, the mercurial, pioneering Gabriele Buffet.

Ideal for readers interested in general fiction.
