Summary

Muse is the story of Naomi Price, a young woman who has a floating relationship with the worlds of fashion, modelling and beauty and a precarious sense of her own identity.

Muse Summary

Muse by Susan Irvine

When Naomi Price is handed a note at her Paris hotel one night, she is flattered but doesn't pay it much attention. She is far too caught up with her glamorous new friends and the world of images they work in. But when she returns to London, the strange notes keep coming. Soon she is questioning her dreams and desires in a way she can't quite put her finger on. And before long she takes a blind jump out of her conventional existence. Why would anyone want to be someone else's muse?

Muse Reviews

One of the coolest, most unusual novels I've ever read, effortlessly taking the reader inside the troubled psyche of her anti-heroine ... a dark, sexy, literary novel - Scotsman. Brilliantly depicts the precarious fine line between real artistic creativity and self-delusory pretension. Naomi's voice is intelligent, playful and ironic, ultimately tragic. I couldn't put this down - New Books. Very modern, very cool... weirdly addictive' Red. Muse combines finely crafted verbal pyrotechnics with a disturbingly dark subject matter' Scotland on Sunday. Muse is a lush and intriguing read for anyone avoiding saccharine chick-lit' Oxford Times. Compelling... beautiful writing' Daily Telegraph.
