"At a time when an ordinary novel might cost $25 or more, you can acquire for just under $40 the intimate correspondence between two of the most important and influential American artists of all time: the great photographer Alfred Stieglitz (1864-1946) and the arguably even greater painter Georgia O'Keeffe (1887-1986)."—Michael Dirda, Washington Post

"Talk about a book bargain! At a time when an ordinary novel might cost $25 or more, you can acquire for just under $40 the intimate correspondence between two of the most important and influential American artists of all time: the great photographer Alfred Stieglitz (1864-1946) and the arguably even greater painter Georgia O’Keeffe (1887-1986)."—Washington Post

"A definitive, scholarly landmark."—Library Journal

"Greenough . . . provides passages of text to complete the narrative of the couple’s relationship and also to provide insights and analysis."—Los Angeles Review of Books

"Senior curator and head of the department of photographs at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., Greenough is a leading Stieglitz scholar. She was told by O'Keeffe in 1981 to make the book 'beautiful' and 'honest.' She has done both."—Hunter Drohojowska-Philp, ARTnews

"Human drama — and much else — appears in their letters, but is usefully clarified in the excellent footnotes and interspersed biographical material by editor Sarah Greenough, an authority on the work of Stieglitz and O’Keeffe."—Los Angeles Times

"This volume brings us the missing pieces in the jigsaw puzzle of O’Keeffe’s life."—ARTnews
