Sirens & Muses (2022)
Antonia Angress
"A page-turning, sexy, witty dive into making art and the art world and just how great the chasm is that lies in-between . . . This thoroughly modern novel explores classic themes of class, talent, and power and introduces Antonia Angress as a thrilling new voice."
