Review of The Painter and the Thief (2020) by G. Allen Johnson for San Francisco Chronicle — 19 May 2020
For the most part, The Painter and the Thief seems authentic, a very real portrait of two unique individuals. It not only explores the artistic impulse, but also issues of relationships, addiction and rehab.
It also provides an interesting glimpse into the Norwegian prison system, which is geared toward rehabilitation rather than punishment.
