Amazon Editorial Review
Andrew Marlow, a psychiatrist, has a perfectly ordered life--solitary, perhaps, but full of devotion to his profession and the painting hobby he loves. This order is destroyed when the renowned painter Robert Oliver attacks a canvas in the National Gallery of Art and becomes Marlow's patient.
When Oliver refuses to talk or cooperate, Marlow finds himself going beyond his own legal and ethical boundaries to understand the secret that torments this silent genius, a journey that will lead him into the lives of the women closest to Robert Oliver and toward a tragedy at the heart of French Impressionism.
Moving from American museums to the coast of Normandy, from the late nineteenth century to the late twentieth, from young love to last love, THE SWAN THIEVES is a story of obsession, the losses of history, and the power of art to preserve human hope.

My father listened to this and enjoyed it

I was helping my dad go through the shelves with audiobooks yesterday and took some that looked to be from other bookcrossers to help move them along. I've found a new home for this and will be sending it out shortly.

Sent today to nimrodiel - Enjoy!

This got here a few weeks ago and I just now have a chance to journal it. Thanks for sharing these.

Since I don't have the option to listen to this on cd anymore (I tend to listen in the car and current car has no cd player), I am going to get a digital copy and pass this along for another reader to enjoy.
