“Every legend, moreover, contains its residuum of truth, and the root function of language is to control the universe by describing it. ”

Barbara Pope's enthralling debut novel, already lauded as a "provocative" by Publisher
Weekly, called "enthralling [and] highly recommended" by Library Journal, and named
"highly accomplished [and] compelling" by the Boston Globe, was featured in the New
York Times Book Review with inclusion in the Paperback Row Editors' Picks this past
Sunday.
NYTBR wrote of Barbara Corrado's mystery, starring the famous Impressionist
painter Paul Cezanne: "This elegant mystery by a historian is full of period details
as well as questions about women's place in the 19th century and the conflict between
science and religion."
