The Naked Spur by Alexander Adams

Description

In a London studio, an artist faces obscurity and failure. Having turned his back on the art world, unable to break through, the artist decides to start painting the darkest corners of human nature. When he quits his job, he risks everything on a scheme, fighting his own passivity as much as the indifference of others and the indifference of gallerists. Part satire, part confession, The Naked Spur exposes a man in crisis, driven to the limits of endurance.
