Julian Barnes on Van Gogh

[@nancyblum12]

This guy is smug & has v little understanding of Vincent van Gogh.

Julian Barnes wasn't very helpful when I contacted him via his publisher. I told him about the condition Retroactive Jealousy and asked what had informed his portrayal of this in his novel -'Before She Met Me'. I also suggested he could take a role in helping people with this condition who identified with the character. He really didn't want to know. A great opportunity for helping people was wasted.

Yes ma’am, he is not a painter nor an art major, but rather an impressionist with words, a writer.
