Book 11 of 2024: The Art Thief by Finkel

4 stars

I enjoy nonfiction about cultural heritage crimes because it's basically low stakes, less violent and gendered true crime. The bare bones of the story are compelling: a working class amateur art connoisseur who steals art at an astonishing pace for several years. I was intrigued by the short passages on the psychology of art theft and personal art collections, so am looking forward to mining the bibliography.
