Negative Positive
Title: Awful
Review: First let me say I loved Girl In Hyacinth Blue and was eagerly awaiting Susan Vreeland's next novel. The Passion of Artemisia was enormously disappointing. The writing was poor, the plot was trite and the book was overflowing with present day political correctness. I know that this was loosely based on fact but it could have been much better. I am tired of books with heroine as victim. The author took lots of liberties with the truth. According to one source I read the real Artemisia had sons yet to make this a feminist novel you cant have her having a positive relationship with a male. I am sick of stories of women done wrong by men.Perhaps it is time for women to grow up.
Is the review positive or negative?
