Critics Review

“Vreeland’s ability to make this complex historical novel as luminous as a Tiffany lamp is nothing less than remarkable.”—The Washington Post

“A novel as sparkling and elegant as a Tiffany lampshade … a sensitive portrayal of women’s struggles in the nineteenth century … [Susan Vreeland] has captured the tone of an era… . The consistent elegance and vitality of her prose make reading her book a pleasure.”—Minneapolis Star Tribune

“As she did for a Vermeer painting in Girl in Hyacinth Blue, Vreeland traces the secret history of an objet d’art—this time, the iconic Tiffany lamp… . A fascinating look at at turn-of-the-century New York City.”—People (4 out of 4 stars)

“Vreeland’s writing is so graceful, her research so exhaustive, that a reader can’t help becoming enfolded in this fascinating world.”—Los Angeles Times

“There’s no excuse for any reader of high-quality literary fiction to let this novel pass by.”—Booklist (starred review)
