At the height of the Belle Époque, Gabriële Buffet—a brilliant young musician fresh out of Europe’s most elite conservatory—meets Francis Picabia, a charismatic and explosive Spanish painter. Their intense love affair plunges them into a Paris alive with artistic experimentation and social rebellion. Soon after, Gabriële meets Marcel Duchamp—younger than Picabia and Gabriële, brilliant, and enigmatic—and before long the three have embarked on a passionate and unconventional relationship that will define their personal stories—and in the process reshape modern art. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs Europe moves from exuberance to upheaval, and World War I looms, Gabriële, Francis Picabia, and Marcel Duchamp and their milieu challenge every convention: about marriage, sexuality, authorship, and artistic freedom. Moving between Paris, New York, Zurich, Berlin, Barcelona, London, and Saint-Tropez, the novel asks a question that feels urgently contemporary: can new ways of loving and being in the world create new ways of thinking? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt once intimate and sweeping, Gabriële restores a pioneering woman to the center of a story long told through men, inviting readers to reconsider genius, collaboration, and the invisible labor behind cultural revolutions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lucky's Books and Comics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67644998680707,"sku":"9798889661924","price":30.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0373\/3795\/6483\/files\/9798889661924.jpg?v=1790993117","url":"https:\/\/luckys.ca\/products\/gabriele","provider":"Lucky's Books and Comics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
