(Paperback - REPRINT)
Celebrated poet W. H. Auden's careful selection of Van Gogh letters creates an impression of the artist as a man consumed not just with the torturous experiences of his brief and painful life but with the drive, ambition, and creative urgency of a man who lived to express himself through painting. Reprinted here for a new generation of readers, this classic is the result of Auden's desire to give voice to a fellow artist's drive to understand his craft.
