Insel

Loosely based on Loy's real friendship with the German painter Richard Oelze, this is the only novel by the inimitable modernist poet and artist Mina Loy, which was never published during her lifetime. It tells the story of an unusual friendship between the narrator (a stand-in for Loy herself) and Insel, a surrealist painter of great talent but terrible living habits.
