Influenced by the Marquis de Sade's work of the same name, an award-winning Scottish writer follows one Englishman's nearly hallucinatory obsession with an obscure woman depicted in a painting, who seems to come to life as identical twins. IP.

One man's obsession, unreality, dreams melding into fantasy even into the end. I thought only... the central complaint of her objectification remains. We know only the narrator's view in the end.
The short chapters really propel you through this work, don't think to hard just go with the feeling of sliding obsession and beauty overall, plenty of literary references if you do.
Thank god it's Friday.
