The Light of Paris

Meer over het boek

Madeleine is trapped in an unhappy marriage and a life she never wanted. When she finds her grandmother's old diary, she is transported to the glamour and high spirits of Jazz Age Paris, inspired by Margie's account of an uncharacteristically wild, romantic summer. Emboldened, Madeleine escapes Chicago, heading for her childhood home. Here, as she reconnects with her love of painting and makes new friends, the chance for a fresh start emerges. But with the revelation of a dark family secret, and her mother's expectations weighing heavily, will she be brave enough to take it?
