"Throughout Gauguin's Ghost Story one sees that it allows the author to step outside himself ~ observing himself through anther's eyes: Gauguin's. The artist is critical of Tony's life up until now, as he is critical of his fellow artists ~ and himself! The author writes about himself, his childhood, his life in England, and his life after relocating to France permanently in 2006. Gauguin talks about himself, his childhood, his relationships, his life in France and his life after relocation, also permanently, to Tahiti. It's always easy to say that someone is a good writer or an accomplished author. What is far more difficult is what Tony Stowers has shown in this book: he's an excellent storyteller. He paints a picture, creates a scene as he tells every bit and piece of his life experiences ~ the typical struggles of an artist, whether painter or poet, to make ends meet...to survive. You're there with him." - France On Your Own review winter 2013
"Gauguin’s Ghost Story is a surprising book. Tony Stowers surprises us with this original book about the post-Impressionist painter Paul Gauguin. But Tony Stowers doesn’t limit himself simply to recreate some facts of Gauguin’s life, he goes deeply to create his own work, a true reflection about art, life and the experiences that can change our whole life. Congratulations for this great book, Tony." - Yareah Magazine |
