Art in Fiction
Being creative and having a way to express ourselves is an important part of life for many of us. Some may make music, others may work in the visual arts, and others may be performers of different varieties. I don’t know if it’s because I’ve been interested in music and the arts for some time, or if it’s because most of the people I hung out with in high school were band geeks, drama nerds, and arty folk, but I enjoy reading a great book that features the arts in some form. What arty reads do you recommend?
