Historical Biographical Novel
by Echo Heron Basing her story on a recently discovered cache of letters written between 1888 and 1944, New York Times bestselling author Echo Heron artfully blends fact with fiction to draw the reader into the remarkable life of one of America’s most prolific and extraordinary women artists: Clara Wolcott Driscoll, the hidden genius behind the iconic Tiffany lamps. “It is heartbreaking that Clara did not get any of the recognition she so richly deserved during her lifetime. This book ‘rights’ that wrong in compelling fashion. It’s a remarkable story and a terrific read.” – lizard (Amazon customer review) |
