The Salon

Set in turn-of-the-century Paris, this savvy graphic novel about friendship and adventures of Georges Braque, Pablo Picasso, Gertrude and Leo Stein, Erik Satie, Alice B.

Toklas, and Guillaurne Apollinaire, and paul Gauguin gives a fascinating glimpse into the minds and hearts of the modernists.

When someone starts tearing the heads off avant-garde painters around Paris, the Steins realise they may be next on the killer's list.

Enlisting the help of their closest friends and colleagues, they set out to put a stop to the ghastly murders.

Filled with danger, art history, and daring escapes, this is a wildly ingenious murder-mystery ride through the origins of modern art.
