Biographical note
MAX PORTER (*1981) studied art history and worked for years as an independent bookseller and editor. His internationally acclaimed debut, Mourning is the Thing with Feathers, won the Sunday Times Young Writer of the Year Award, the International Dylan Thomas Prize, and the Europese Literatuurprijs, among others, and was adapted for the theater. His second novel, Lanny, has been nominated for the 2019 Booker Prize.
The painter Francis Bacon lies on his deathbed and paints his last paintings. In lyrical and haunting language, Max Porter approaches the artist by immersing himself in the state of a dying body and in the essence of his oeuvre. A sensual and daring experiment that has never been seen before.
