• Critical Reception

  • The New York Times Book Review: "Richardson is juggling so many people and themes and events with such aplomb that readers may not quite realize what literary pyrotechnics are involved."
  • The Washington Post: "…energetically opinionated, sprightly and illuminating in its analytic passages, casually cruel in its put-downs of lesser artists…and downright lubricious in its fascination with sex."
  • Publishers Weekly: "[Richardson] is particularly skilled at evoking the humor and sexuality that imbues Picasso's portraits of Marie-Thérèse, who became his mistress when he was 45 and she 17."
