If you’re looking for a book to read over the Memorial Day weekend consider The Last Painting of Sara de Vos by Dominic Smith. This beautifully written novel explores how art can transform the artist as well as the observer. Fans of historical fiction won’t be disappointed as the author does a fine job of creating rich details of Amsterdam in 1631, New York City in 1957 and Sydney in 2000.
