The Random Curve

About the Book

Roberta Ralphes, a successful painter and sculptress, has finished the final piece for her new show. It will be her last show. Her muse is dead, and the well of creative inspiration is dry. But when her father’s passing leaves her with the freedom and the means to be independent, Roberta Ralphes must reinvent herself. The Random Curve is about one woman who is offered the chance to make of oneself one’s own masterpiece and, most importantly, to explore the possibilities of a life without a past.
