5 star book review

Attention all artists, writers and friends who love creativity, joyous word-smithing and a good rollercoaster of a read. I just finished Sam Weis' new novel "Abstraction." Some of her sharply defined idiosyncratic characters will make you laugh out loud ; others will make you lust to share studio space. Remember to breathe. Such a delightful, crazy/original premise. The book also made me want to visit the Pacific Northwest, very much a character in the book. That's it. I'm not going to say anymore. Oh, except that Sam is one of the finest abstract painters I know and a renown 12 string guitar performer as well as a captivating writer. And she lives here!!! Lucky us.
