PAINTED GIRLS Possible TV Series
Cathy Marie Buchanan’s novel, The Painted Girls, (Penguin/Riverhead), published in January, was inspired by Degas’s Little Dancer Aged Fourteen.
It is now the inspiration for a possible TV series, produced by The CW and CBS TV Studios, according to Deadline.com.
The novel received praise in a Washington Post review by Susan Vreeland, the author of another book inspired by a work of art from the same period, Luncheon of the Boating Party, (Penguin).
