All the Days and Nights

Book 58 of my 2018 Reading Challenge

All the Days and Nights by Niven Govinden

Summary (via Goodreads)
The East Coast of America, 1980.
Anna Brown, a dying artist, works on her final portrait. Obsessive and secretive, it is a righting of her past failures; her final statement.
John Brown, her husband and life-long muse, has left; walked out of their home one morning to travel cross-country in search of the paintings he has sat for.
As their stories unfold – independently, for the first time in many years – a passionate unconventional relationship is revealed, between two people living through the most tumultuous decades of modern history.
All the Days and Nights is the story of an art hunt during a twilight period of painting. It lays bare two relationships that are ever changing and incomparable: of the artist and the muse, and of lovers. It is an exploration of what it means to create, what it means to inspire, what it means to live.

My Opinion
I didn't mind the writing or the story but the perspective choices were not always working.

It could be very confusing if I wasn't paying very close attention because there were times characters were describing things they weren't a part of and it wasn't clear if they were guessing or if they somehow knew (and how they knew if they did), and there were conversations that didn't fit in.

I wavered between 2 and 3 stars but rounded down because the issues I had with book were deliberate choices and part of the writing style.  I would read this author again though.
