A video book review of The Art Forger by B.A. Shapiro. Purchase the book on Bookshop here, and on Amazon here.

"Claire is a painter whose reputation has been ruined. After being in a relationship with her teacher, a man 16 years older, it’s revealed Claire was the one to paint several of his pieces, to do the actual work, and he just signed his name. But no one admits to believing her. Blackballed by the art community, she’s been supporting herself doing reproductions. Then she’s visited by her old friend, a gallery owner, who offers to give her a solo show if she forges something for him." -- Michelle Z. from In the Stacks.tv
