- Summary:
-
The Sitter is a startlingly accomplished and multilayered work about a woman writing a novel based on Hortense Cezanne, the wife of the celebrated painter. As the two women start to connect in unexpected ways, the balance between writer and subject shifts, and the parallels between their lives come into focus: the limitations of their gender, the need to reclaim one's own story and the sacrifices made for art. Confined to a hotel room in Paris at the start of the pandemic, the author finds herself writing another novel entirely, one based on a devastating event in her own past.
