Set in the romantic glow of 1920s Paris, a captivating
novel of New York socialite and model Lee Miller, whose
glamorous looks and joie de vivre caught the eye of Man
Ray, one of the twentieth century’s defining
photographers. 1929, Montparnasse. Model and woman about town Lee Miller
moves to Paris determined to make herself known amidst
the giddy circle of celebrated artists, authors, and
photographers currently holding court in the city. She
seeks out the charming, charismatic artist Man Ray to
become his assistant but soon becomes much more than
that: his model, his lover, his muse. Coming into her own more fully every day, Lee models,
begins working on her own projects, and even stars in a
film, provoking the jealousy of the older and possessive
Man Ray. Drinking and carousing is the order of the day,
but while hobnobbing with the likes of Picasso and
Charlie Chaplin, she also falls in love with the art of
photography and finds that her own vision can no longer
come second to her mentor’s. The Woman in the Photograph is the richly drawn,
tempestuous novel about a talented and fearless young
woman caught up in one of the most fascinating times of
the twentieth century.
