Girl Braiding Her Hair: Inspired by the true story of a revolutionary female artist history forgot
"My it's-never-going-to-be-spring attitude put me in the mood to hide away with a book, and this was the perfect one for it. I loved the characters, wanted to be neighbors of theirs...wanted to applaud their talents and strengths." C. Cain
By the time Suzanne Valadon was 15 years old, she'd been a horse walker, a funeral wreath maker, and a circus acrobat. When she began to model for some of the greatest Impressionists, people accused her of having loose morals, but she was an innocent. Until she met Renoir...
Her friends included Van Gogh, Degas, and Toulouse-Lautrec. Artists celebrated her as a sought-after model, but then she picked up the brush herself, at a time when art schools refused to accept female students.
This is her story, along with Ellie's, who a century later at a crossroads of her life, pulls Suzanne from the shadows of the past into the light.
"...filled with drive and emotion...Marta writes so vividly that I felt like I was participating in the adventure." Lin Swens
"I had a hard time putting the book down to go to sleep at night." Kaela Mays
From the author of the bestselling novel THE SECRET LIFE OF SUNFLOWERS.
