Greatly informative & perfect for a long road trip

I wasn't sure that I would enjoy a book of art reviews but each short piece was informative and fun. The narrator was perfect, lively and engaging. We listened to the whole book on a road trip and it made the time just fly. We were sorry when it ended and we had more miles to go without Misters Lucie-Smith and Barber to keep us company.
