Lo scandalo Modigliani (The Modigliani Scandal)

by Ken Follett, Roberta Rambelli (Translator)

Overview

Una tela che si riteneva perduta, dipinta da Amedeo Modigliani sotto l'effetto dell'hashish, scatena nel mondo dei falsari dell'arte un'insolita "caccia al tesoro" nella quale vengono coinvolti Dee Sleign, una brillante studentessa di storia dell'arte, Charles Lampeth, avido proprietario di una piccola galleria sommersa dai debiti, e una serie di personaggi disposti a tutto pur di mettere le mani sul dipinto. Un giallo accattivante e scanzonato i cui protagonisti, quasi tutti giovani, si lanciano in una quantità di imprese azzardate che quasi mai vanno a finire secondo le previsioni. Un romanzo avventuroso, vivace, effervescente, colorito e spiritoso. Il primo libro di Ken Follett.
