A historical romance novel of love, artistry, and Vincent Van Gogh’s
muse in 19th century France Summer, 1890. Van Gogh arrives at
Auvers-sur-Oise, a bucolic French village that lures city artists to
the country. It is here that twenty-year-old Maurguerite Gachet has
grown up, attending to her father and brother ever since her
mother’s death. And it is here that young Vincent Van Gogh will
spend his last summer, under the care of Doctor Gachet—homeopathic
doctor, dilettante painter, and collector. In these last days of his
life, Van Gogh will create over 70 paintings, two of them portraits of
Marguerite Gachet. But little does he know that, while capturing
Marguerite and her garden on canvas, he will also capture her heart.
Both a love story and historical novel, The Last Van Gogh recreates
the final months of Vincent’s life—and the tragic relationship
between a young girl brimming with hope and an artist teetering on
despair.
