Controversial new novel re-opens debate on enigmatic artist

The Sunday Painter, the debut novel by former Fleet Street journalist, Alice Hunter, is published in November 2011 by pioneering digital publisher, Free-eBooks.net.

Santa Monica, California (PRWEB)–24th October 2011 He was known throughout his lifetime as ‘a simple man,’ but the uncovering of a series of erotic works after L.S. Lowry’s death in 1976 shocked the art world and challenged his status as a national British treasure. The paintings depict Lowry’s muse, the mysterious Ann figure, whose identity has confounded the art world for over 30 years. Alice Hunter’s debut novel, The Sunday Painter, sheds new light on this intriguing mystery. It will be published in November 2011 by leading digital publisher, Free-eBooks.net. Inspired by her roots in Manchester and with an investigative journalism background, novelist, Alice Hunter, decided to tackle the mystery of Ann. “I have always been fascinated by the work of L.S. Lowry,” says Hunter, “I grew up just around the corner from where he lived. He was an enigma during his lifetime and remains so in death. I thought the story of Ann would make a compelling subject for a fictionalised account of the relationship between a painter and his muse.” Lowry’s work has soared in popularity in recent years, perhaps partly inspired by the mystery surrounding him. Originally seen as little more than an enthusiastic amateur landscape painter, his paintings now sell for upwards of £5 million at auction. In fact, the ongoing debate has not dampened the enthusiasm of art critics and collectors alike who have reportedly been ordering copies of the novel well in advance of the release date. The Sunday Painter provides a new perspective on the man behind the myth and brings the story of Ann to a shocking and unexpected conclusion.
