I would like to invite you to read The Painter by Vera Britto - available as an ebook on Amazaon.
What is a man to do when he is trapped? – Based on a poignant short story by Aldous Huxley, one of England’s greatest writers

It is 1923, and London is home to Rolls-Royce limousines, art snobs and cunning young men trying to better themselves. Some, like the dashing William, climb on the backs of others while friends at the club cheer him on. Some, like Lord Badgery, throw out crumbs of privilege to those eager to lap them up. Yet others, like the down-trodden Jonathan, are dazzled by England's aristocratic circles which he observes with ever widening eyes. What wouldn’t he give to be one of them and to escape his own suffocating circumstances? If he had to pay a high price for acceptance, his greatest dream, would he? Set against the backdrop of the world of painting and fine arts, with real and fictional artists and artworks, one man’s soul is tested.

The cinema has not used Huxley’s short story, “The Tillotson Banquet”, but “The Painter” shows how rich and vibrant such a film would be. The story is written in a screenplay format, which author Vera Britto playfully calls a Movie-in-a-Book and shows it is a viable and enjoyable format as any other. With filmmaking’s freedom, she paints in characters and drama to enrich Huxley’s story. Directions for filming and acting will pique the imagination of the reader in a way that prose does not. There is “image” in “imagination”, and page by page this Movie-in-a-Book fills a mental screen. The reader enjoys both a rich interpretation of life in upper class England and the chance to embark on this exciting adventure sitting in the director’s chair.
