The Improbability of Love by Hannah Rothschild, the first woman chair of the National Gallery in London, is a wonderfully original and very funny novel about the absurdity of the London art market and the world's mega-rich who will do anything to own the latest hot painting.
It tells the story of Annie, a young chef, caught up in the madness by mistake and in a clever twist, many of the chapters are voiced by the painting itself.
Well written, witty, entertaining, and full of wonderful characters, I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
