Lust for life by Irving Stone
Book Number:RC 55899
3 sound cassettes
Fictional biography of the passionate and beleaguered Dutch painter Vincent
van Gogh (1853-1890). Based on the three volumes of van Gogh’s letters to
his brother, Theo. Basis for an Academy Award-winning movie. 1934.
I enjoyed this book. It was full of historical figures from the art world.
Interesting and sad but that was Van Gogh's life. I give this one a 3 out
of 5.
Happy Reading,
Carla/TexasRed

The film with Kirk Douglas is a masterpiece, when he was finished in make up and looked in the mirror, Vincent was staring back at him.
