Watching her is sculptor David Lawrence. Inspired to create a series of unique new sculptures for The Wells Gallery exhibition, David relocates from London to his new studio in North Cornwall. Near this wild and rugged coastline, David reconnects with elemental forces which drive his work. Urged on by his ambitious manager, Francesca Wells; reawakened by his student love, a poet called Tasmin; overwhelmed by his erotic desire for his muse Teresa Guiccioli; David begins his struggle to create art which the reader can visualise as it emerges. Set in a liquid world of lake and seascapes, counterpoised with the sensuality of carved stone, three extraordinary women come and go in Davids life. Eventually, he will produce works which are sold to the one man he detests. A Sirens Call is a poignant story which allows the reader to experience the creative and destructive impulses at work within the artistic process. Love and loss pierce the surface to expose a complex world beneath. About the Author Judith Gibbs taught in a London comprehensive school before gaining a PhD. She then went on to teach Literature and the Visual Arts at the University of Reading in the UK. A Siren's Call is her first novel. Married with two children, she lives in Wiltshire.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68065330561312,"sku":"NEW147830250X","price":12.21,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61BzQULwFxL.jpg?v=1793370782","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/a-sirens-call-147830250x","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
