The death of Peter Meinenger, his friend turned romantic and intellectual rival, prompts him to ruminate on his own career as a minor artist and collector and make sense of a lifetime of gnawing doubt. Over time, his bitterness toward his family, his gentrifying neighborhood, and the decline of intelligent artistic discourse gives way to a kind of peace within himself, as he emerges from the shadow of the past and finds a reason to live, every day, in "the now". 650 0 $a Painters $v Fiction. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008108758 650 0 $a Art $x Collectors and collecting $v Fiction. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2007101088 655 7 $a Stream of consciousness fiction. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026561 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026339 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019015428.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=044DD220FAD211E7A45C351A97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
