WFL Book Club – The Art Thief
WFL’s volunteer led book club’s January selection is The Art Thief by Michael Finkel. All are welcome to join on Tuesday, Jan. 13 at 1:30 p.m. Annual registration is requested to receive important communications about schedule or location changes. In this spellbinding portrait of obsession and flawed genius, Michael Finkel gives us one of the most remarkable true-crime narratives of our times, a riveting story of art, theft, love, and an insatiable hunger to possess beauty at any cost.
“Exhilarating…Finkel’s narrative thrills and electrifies, until it all barrels toward inevitable capture, two shocking betrayals, and an astonishing conclusion.”
—Adrienne Westenfeld, Esquire
“Thrilling…Finkel deftly unspools the story of Breitwieser’s improbable years-long adventure.”
—Geoffrey Gagnon, GQ
