I picked Karmel's book up yesterday and found that I could not put it down. I am neither an artist, nor an art historian, but I found Karmel's explanation and analysis of Picasso's cubism both accessible and fascinating.

Setting aside the craft of Karmel's words, the book itself happens to be a work of art in its own right. It is beautifully bound with fantastic images.... This is the first book that I have felt the need to write a review of on amazon. Let me assure you that there is a reason...
