Office at Night

By Kate Bernheimer & Laird Hunt
Office at Night by Kate Bernheimer & Laird Hunt digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Edward Hopper’s painting "Office at Night" is open to endless interpretation. In this collaborative novella, Kate Bernheimer and Laird Hunt borrow from his practice of improvising on “the facts” of observation to create a work of art, imagining the lives of its characters: stenographer Marge Quinn and her boss, the sometimes painter Abraham Chelikowsky.
