Irving Stone Synopses: Lust for Life by Irving Stone is the story of Vincent Van Gogh – brilliant painter, passionate lover, and alleged madman. Here is his tempestuous story: his dramatic life, his fevered loves for both the highest-born women and the lowest prostitutes, and his paintings – for which he was damned before being proclaimed a genius. The novel goes from his desperate days in a coal mine in southern Belgium to his dazzling years in the south of France, where he knew the most brilliant artists (and the most depraved whores). Finally, it shows us Van Gogh driven mad, tragic, and triumphant at once.
The President’s Lady is a biographical novel by Irving Stone, bringing to life the tender and poignant love story of Rachel and Andrew Jackson.
