Early in the novel, Hockney has a revelation: “Nature and artifice were thus not at odds, any more than were the figurative and abstraction, poetry and graffiti, quotes and originality, playing and reality.” This idea frees him to paint what he wants: California swimming pools, gay couples and naked men, all in bright hues. It also seems to free Ms Cusset to combine the facts of Mr Hockney’s life with her own imagination.
