  “Duffy is an author to watch. She presents a unique look at society’s
  expectations for women in two different cultures in the late 19th century. . .
  . This historical romance is recommended for readers of Tracie Peterson and
  Jody Hedlund.”

  “In this exceptional novel, Duffy tells a powerful story about personal
  transformation and legacy. From the picturesque falls of Upstate New York to
  stunning sites in India, Duffy shines in elegant, flowing prose and delicate
  precision that underscores the nineteenth-century setting. A Mosaic of Wings
  examines the rhythm of change, the sense of loss that accompanies a passing
  season, and fear and excitement of journeying into the unknown. Science,
  culture, and romance intersect enjoyably in Duffy’s tale of academia, while
  the tensions of gender and social norms circa 1885 add complexity to her
  memorable characters.”
