From the publisher
From the rear cover
-- Midwest Book Review "Maisel persuasively argues that creative individuals measure their happiness and success by how much meaning they create in their work."
-- Library Journal "Rather than shunning conventional treatments such as antidepressants and therapy, Maisel espouses confrontation with what seems like the existential pit of despair, the place creators often find themselves when looking for meaning in their work and the world. The Van Gogh Blues will help you remain true to your artistic calling and give you a medicine chest of tips and advice you can leverage if the Black Dog or another pernicious emotional booby trap snarls behind your canvas."
-- Jeffrey M. Freedman, screenwriter, Vivaldi, and journalist-author
