****The Matisse Stories by A.S. Byatt

  • First published in 1993
  • English novelist (1936- )
  • A.S. Byatt is known for her academic literary style which includes naturalism, realism and magical realism.
This was my last read for 2014. What a lovely way to end the year!

Beautifully written and deeply introspective, Byatt quietly ponders life as it relates to aging, self-perception and creativity. Her thoughts are shared simply and thoughtfully. A lovely edition of  three short stories.
