Title: Emilie's Voice
Product review: Emilie's Voice is an intelligent and compelling piece of historical fiction. It contains a perfect blend: well rounded characters, an interesting moment in history, intrigue, love and sacrifice.Susanne Dunlap's portrayal of 17th century France is full of rich and authentic details. The politics surrounding an artist's success or failure during the reign of Louis XI is conveyed with a deft hand.In Emilie, the reader will discover a nave and engaging girl of humble origins, who possesses a glorious talent. As she is used and abused for both personal and political gain, her voice-- both as an artist and an individual-develops, reaching maturity that left me gasping at the startling conclusion of the story.
