Reviewer’s Name: Annette Hamm Reviewer’s Occupation: Office Manager Book Title: Caravaggio: Painter of Miracles Book’s Author: Francine Prose I knew little about Caravaggio before beginning this short overview of his life and works and now I wish to read more about this talented and troubled man. I think this book achieves what it set out to do: while not excusing Caravaggio’s erratic and sometimes furious behavior, it ties his life with his works of art in a way that, while complete, makes the reader want to know even more.
