Satirical glimpse into Manhattan's chaotic art world.

If The Devil Wears Prada charmed you with its behind-the-scenes fashion industry drama, "Lulu Meets God and Doubts Him" provides a similar treat, but for the art scene. You'd likely revel in the satirical take on how a tragedy can absurdly escalate an artist's fame. The novel offers a witty lens through which to view the quirks and pretensions of art aficionados, while telling the poignant story of a young woman's personal and artistic growth amidst the chaos. It's the kind of story that makes you chuckle, but also think deeply about the unpredictable waves of the art world.

Description

As The Devil Wears Prada demystified the world of high fashion, this funny and insightful debut novel dives into the crazy and captivating Manhattan art scene. When painter Jeffrey Finelli is run over by a cab, the art world clamors for the instantly in-demand work by the late “emerging artist”—especially an enormous painting called Lulu Meets God and Doubts Him. Gallery receptionist and aspiring artist Mia McMurray finds herself at the center of the hype. She watches as a Birkin-toting collector, a well-muscled Irish artist, a real estate baron, and Lulu herself, the artist’s niece and muse, battle over the brand-new masterpiece. In the midst of the madness, Mia discovers her own creative expression and artistic identity, not to mention love.
