Description

Walking down the streets of Paris, the young Vincent van Gogh didn't feel like he belonged. Battling poverty, repeated heartbreak and familial obligation, van Gogh was a man plagued by his own creative urge but with no outlet to express it. Until the day he picked up a paintbrush.

Written with raw insight and emotion, the novel follows the artist through his tormented life, struggling against critical discouragement and mental turmoil, and bears witness to his creative journey from a struggling artist to one of the world's most celebrated painters.

Lust for Life is the classic fictional re-telling of the incredible life of Vincent van Gogh.
