Portraits In Fiction by A S Byatt
Portraits seem the opposite of fiction, fixed in time and space, not running with the curve of a story or a life. Byatt delves into the complex relations between portraits and characters, and between portraits and novels as whole works of art.
A.S. Byatt is a novelist, short-story writer and critic of international renown. Her novels include Possession (winner of the Booker Prize 1990), the Frederica Quartet and The Children’s Book, which was shortlisted for the Booker Prize and won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize for Fiction.
