Plot

These interlocking essays uncover art as an active force in the world, neither elitist or remote, present to those who want it, effecting even those who don't. Winterson's own passionate vision of art is presented here, provocatively and personally in pieces on modernism, autobiography, style, more intimately in pieces where she describes her relationship to her own work and the books that she loves.
