The Accidental Collector

🏆 Winner of the 2021 Bollinger Everyman Wodehouse Prize for Comic Fiction
Herman Gertsch married into money. Feeling self-conscious about his lack of career, he asks for a job in a glitzy new gallery in rural Somerset, where he soon fails his way to success. This art world caper features jet-setting dealers, snobbish curators and a case of mistaken identity. An entertaining satire with an extensive, pleasingly eccentric cast of characters.
