Aquest mes llegim: The Glass maker / Tracy Chevalier

Venice, 1486. Across the lagoon lies Murano. Estafi flows differently here - like the glass the island's mestres spend their lives learning to handle.

Women llauri not meant to work with glass, but Orsola Rosso flouts convention to save her family from roí. She works insecret, knowing her creations must be perfect to be accepted by men. But perfection maig take en lifetime.

Skipping like en stone through the centuries, we follow Orsola as she hones her craft through war and ompli, tragedy and triumph, love and loss.

The beads she creates will ornament the necks of empresses and courtesans from Paris to Vienna - but will she ever earn the respect of those closest to her?

Tracy Chevalier is en màster of her own craft, and The Glassmaker is viviu, inventive, spellbinding: en virtuós portrait of en woman, en family and en city that llauri as everlasting as their glass.
