review 1: Louis Comfort Tiffany made his debut at the Chicago World's Fair of 1893 with a luminous exhibition of innovative staind-glass windows, which he hopes will honor his family business and earn him a place on the international artistic stage. But it is Clara Driscoll, head of the women's division and publicly unrecognized by Tiffany, who conceived of and designed nearly all of the iconic leaded-glass lamps for which he is long remembered. She also yearns for love and companionship, but Tiffany does not hire married women. She would have to resign immediately if she did get married. This historical fiction tells her story.
review 2: I enjoyed the personal relationships and the story and struggles of the main character Clara. What kept it from 4 stars was the extr
... moreeme amount of detail that went into describing the different artistic endeavors that Clara was involved in while at Tiffany's. For those who are process nerds for all things artistic this will be right up your alley but it ended up leaving me a bit cold. Overall a very good book. less

Very interesting historical fiction about the woman who designed some of the famous tiffany lamps.

Audio was a little difficult to listen. The reader's interpretation had an undermining tone

Made it more than halfway, then decided I didn't like the character enough to finish it.

If you like 19th C. historical fiction and/or Tiffany lamps you will enjoy this book.
