Tracy Chevalier recommends
A Heart of Stone (2000) Renate Dorrestein "Moving, chilling, powerful." | Bone House (2000) Betsy Tobin "Wonderful... poignant and gripping." | Lydia Cassatt Reading the Morning Paper (2001) Harriet Scott Chessman "Lovely, Chessman beautifully captures the rich relationship between sisters." | |
Symphony (2006) Jude Morgan "Wonderful - rich, authentic, beautifully written." | Nelly Dean (2015) Alison Case "Richly imagined. Now I wonder how I could have been satisfied with only the original telling." | All True Not a Lie in It (2015) Alix Hawley "With vivid imagery and a strong, dreamlike voice, Alix Hawley confidently strips away the myth of Daniel Boone to reveal the strange, pulsing man underneath. It is a remarkable feat and a remarkable book." | |
