Spending by Mary Gordon
Monica Szabo, a middle-aged, moderately successful painter, encounters B, a wealthy commodities broker who collects her work. B volunteers to be her muse, offering her everything that male artists have always had to produce great art: time, space, money, and sex.Passionate, provocative, and highly engaging, Spending displays Gordon's maverick feminism, her extraordinary wit, and her unique perspectives on art, money, men, sex -- and the desires of women.
Pearl, Spending, The Company of Women, The Rest of Life, and The Other Side are some of Mary Gordon's novels. She's also the author of the memoir The Shadow Man, as well as other nonfiction works. She has won the Lila Wallace-Reader's Digest Award, a Guggenheim Fellowship, and the O. Henry Prize in 1997. The Henry Prize is given to the best narrative. She lives in New York City and teaches at Barnard College.
