Extended description

An intriguing blend of prose and poetry, Invisible Women is a stunning examination of art, passion and storytelling through a post-modern fable that explores the destructive futility of the male gaze.

Calvino, the legendary artist and lover, wastes away in a luxurious desert prison. When a traveller comes to the prison seeking fortune, he shares stories of the women he has known in order to soothe Calvino's lonely soul. But in his dying passion, the great artist sets the traveller an impossible task; to find the woman of Calvino's dreams.
