Literary synopsis

Through an examination of regionalism, class, race, gender, and sexuality that alludes to the American New Narrative (albeit with extra Brit Bitch LOLZ), cult author Susan Finlay attempts to determine what success (and the lack of) means to a creative individual, as well as what defines a person as such. Essentially, a love letter to bohemianism, The Lives of the Artists offers a unique, if topsy-turvy, vision of aesthetic endeavour, in which gossip becomes a political tactic, and the gutter is the stars.
