Kurzbeschreibung:

The downloadable, digital audiobook edition of Ali Smith s remarkable exploration of love, life and death, read by the author herself.
Originally four lectures given by Ali Smith at Oxford University, Artful is a tidal wave of ideas in four thematically organised bursts of thought: On Time, On Form, On Edge and On Offer and On Reflection. Refusing to be tied down to either fiction or the essay form, Artful is narrated by a character who is haunted - literally - by a former lover, the writer of a series of lectures about art and literature. Full of both the poignancy and humour of fiction and all the sideways insights and jaunty angles you would expect from Ali Smith s criticism, it explores form, style, life, love, death, mortality, immortality and what art and writing can mean.
