Tungkol sa ebook na ito
“[A] double tale skimming through the art capitals of Europe . . . will keep readers wondering what is real and what is artifice—as fine paintings always do.” —Susan Vreeland, New York Times–bestselling author of Girl in Hyacinth Blue
While in Europe researching her next novel, twenty-something American Tulia Rose falls headlong into a romance with a handsome sidewalk artist. As he takes her on a tour of Europe’s artistic treasures, she begins writing the story of the painter Raphael and his secret lover. Yet as her own affair grows deeper, Tulia’s sidewalk artist grows more mysterious. Why does he seem so familiar? And what is his connection to the great Renaissance painter?
Set in Paris and Italy, this lyrical first novel interweaves two parallel love stories, offering readers a unique view on the research and inspiration that goes into creating historical novels.
“[A] bittersweet debut. . . . The romantic European locales Tulia visits, including Paris, Venice and the Tuscan countryside, are dreamily described.” —Publishers Weekly
“An inventive tale, beautifully and skillfully told. It is a story that swiftly sweeps the reader up into two intricate and compelling worlds, and does not let go until the very last word.” —Diane Haeger, author of The Ruby Ring
“An enchanting story of love and art, bringing to life the passion that inspires both.” —James McKean, author of Quattrocento
“A beautifully written book with a magical love story.” —Roberta Gellis, author of Lecrezia Borgia and the Mother of All Poisons
“A deliciously dreamlike tale of modern love and Renaissance romance” —Jeanne Kalogridis, author of The Borgia Bride
“A charming, Hollywood-ready romance.” —Kirkus Reviews
