I loved Picasso

Pablo Picasso, one of the most significant artists of the twentieth century, but also a great lover of women. Few could resist his charm, and often the prospect of becoming immortal, forever captured on his canvas or in the perfect curves of his sculptures. Pablo Picasso had countless lovers and several wives in his lifetime, some of whom you will meet in this novel.
The stories from Pablo's life are accompanied by the sound of the sea, a southern breeze saturated with the scent of lavender and thyme, the song of cicadas and nights full of bright stars... and the result is a cocktail mixed with a passion and beauty that is hard to resist. So let yourself be transported to the south of France in the period between the wars, but also to the 1950s in the USA, marked by the infamous McCarthyism. On your journey, you will meet not only the brilliant artist and some of the women who passed through his life, but also art historian and budding editor Alana Olson, who learns more than she expected about her own family's past as she follows in the artist's footsteps.
