Review of "The Lacuna"
by Roger on Sat 4th Dec 2010.
read on Kindle. Fantastic story, really enjoyed it, deeply involving and nteresting as well as connected to other aspects of life - eg I had forgotten that when on holiday in San Fransisco in 1999 we had stumbled into Diego Rivera's studio and exhibition of his works.
