A bestselling 'Cornish' novel, NOTES FROM AN EXHIBITION is a moving, intuitive novel of artistic compulsion, marriage, and the secrets left behind. It was a Richard & Judy bestseller.

'Poised and pitch-perfect throughout' Mail on Sunday

Celebrated artist Rachel Kelly dies alone in her Penzance studio, after decades of struggling with the creative highs and devastating lows that have coloured her life. Her family gathers, each of them searching for answers. They reflect on lives shaped by the enigmatic Rachel - as artist, wife and mother - and on the ambiguous legacies she leaves them, of talent, torment and transcendent love.©2007 Patrick Gale Family Life Fiction Genre Fiction Literary Fiction Literature & Fiction Marriage

This book is complete perfection (Stephen Fry)
Poised and pitch-perfect throughout
Dense, thought-provoking, sensitive, satisfying, humorous, humane - a real treat
As rich and inventive as we would expect from this brilliant author
An uplifting, immensely empathetic novel, and Gale's prose, as ever is as clear and bright as the Cornish light
