Sacre Bleu [fixed] - Christopher Moore by Unknown, Christopher Moore
It is the color of the Virgin Marys cloak, a dazzling pigment desired by artists, an exquisite hue infused with danger, adventure, and perhaps even the supernatural. It is Sacr Bleu., In July 1890, Vincent van Gogh went into a cornfield and shot himself. Or did he? Why would an artist at the height of his creative powers attempt to take his life and then walk a mile to a doctors house for help? Who was the crooked little color man Vincent had claimed was stalking him across France? And why had the painter recently become deathly afraid of a certain shade of blue?, These are just a few of the questions confronting Vincents friends - baker-turned-painter Lucien Lessard and bon vivant Henri Toulouse-Lautrec - who vow to discover the truth of van Goghs untimely death. Their quest will lead them on a surreal odyssey and brothel-crawl deep into the art world of late 19th century Paris., Oh la la, quelle surprise, and zut alors! A delectable confection of intrigue, passion, and art history -
