Painting Death by Tim Parks
An amoral English expatriate in Verona, desperate to secure social standing and bury the memory of past crimes, schemes his way into the city’s art world by exploiting a high-profile exhibition and the ambitions of local officials. As he manipulates donors, curators, and politicians, his plans unravel into a darkly comic tangle of blackmail, threats, and bureaucratic farce, exposing the vanity and corruption of cultural life while the consequences of his earlier misdeeds close in.
