In the Shadow of Eternity: The Story of Modigliani & Jeanne

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. This novel is a humble tribute to the sublime and heartbreaking love between the Italian painter Amedeo Modigliani and his last muse, Jeanne Hébuterne. It traces the tender arc of their brief yet incandescent love story, beginning in 1917 when they first met, and ending in 1920 with their tragic and untimely deaths.

Modigliani, already frail from illness and weighed by poverty and artistic struggle, found in Jeanne not only a muse but a soul mirror—an echo of his pain, passion, and longing. Jeanne, young and gentle, was drawn to the fire and depth of the man whose eyes rarely painted pupils but always saw souls.

Their love—fraught with hardships, shadowed by illness, and sealed by death—was not of this world. And yet, it was in death that they were finally reunited: ten years after Jeanne’s suicide, her family allowed her to be buried beside Amedeo, completing the love story they began in life.

This story is not only about tragedy. It is about transcendence. It is about love so radiant, so all-consuming, it becomes eternal.

To all who have ever loved deeply, and lost deeply—this story is for you.
