Sensual and provocative."-BaltimoreSun From the Hardcover edition., PRAISE FOR SUSAN VREELAND Girl in Hyacinth Blue "[A] beautifully written exploration of the power of art."- Parade "Stunning . . . haunting."- San Francisco Chronicle Luncheon of the Boating Party "A masterwork."- The San Diego Union-Tribune "Vreeland takes the big, bold brush-strokes of Renoir's personal and artistic oeuvre and displays them with her usual vividness in this eponymous novel. . . . Sensual and provocative."-Baltimore Sun "The book brims with fascinating information about Tiffany''s glassmaking and about New York as its gilded age gives way to a more progressive era. ...Vreeland''s ability to make this complex historical novel as luminous as a Tiffany lamp is nothing less than remarkable." - Washington Post "Vreeland''s writing is so graceful, her research so exhaustive, that a reader is enfolded in the world of Tiffany and Driscoll&.fascinating." - Los Angeles Times "Vreeland offers a fascinating look at at turn-of-the-century New York City." - People Magazine (4 stars) "[H]ot as a glass factory&Give Vreeland credit for shedding light on a little-known slice of women's history." - USA Today "You'll never look at a Tiffany lamp or window the same way." - Daily Candy National "Weekend Guide" "Fascinating."- Newark Star Ledger "Vreeland has done a good job describing the tensions within the business and between creative artistry and a desire for a personal life& An interesting book about a woman deservedly rescued from obscurity." - Fredericksburg, Va. Free Star "If you're a fiction reader, you are going to want to pick up at least one of these early 2011 novels." - The Christian Science Monitor, "5 Novels for the New Year" "The author of Girl in Hyacinth Blue here imagines a woman torn between art and love in a novel based on the real-life creator of the iconic Tiffany lamps." - O Magazine, "10 Titles to Pick Up Now" "Who knew Tiffany's iconic lamp was designed by a woman? Perfect fodder for historical novelist Vreeland, who travels back to New York City's Gilded Age to imagine how it all unfolded." - Good Housekeeping "Vreeland brings 1890s Manhattan to vibrant life&Vivid descriptions of window and lamp production will surely bring readers a new appreciation for stained glass. And Clara's battles for the rights of her female workers and for artistic originality versus mass production are compelling, as is her complicated relationship with Mr. Tiffany. This charming woman is a memorable heroine and, just as Clara's art enhanced the images of nature that it depicted, Vreeland's illuminating vision of Clara's story is a pleasure to experience." - BookPage "As sparkling and alluring as the lost story of the woman who created the famed Tiffany glass lamps, Clara and Mr. Tiffany is a masterpiece of a novel. In it fin de si cle New York jumps to life in all its gaudy and heartbreaking grandeur and opportunities. As much a character study of a city and a time as of a woman, Susan Vreeland shows us the new technology that enabled people to craft the magnificent lamps so sought after today, and the artist's eye of Clara Driscoll that brought them to perfection." -- Margaret George "For the first time in my long life of reading novels, Susan Vreeland made me cry over the glory of women''s work. Clara and Mr. Tiffany is a noble and necessary book, lest we allow ourselves to be ignorant of the struggle, courage, and vision of women who have come before us. Readers will never look at a Tiffany lamp or window in the same way again." --Sena Jeter Naslund, author of Ahab''s Wife and Adam & Eve From the Hardcover edition., PRAISE FOR SUSAN VREELAND Girl in Hyacinth Blue "[A] beautifully written exploration of the power of art."- Parade "Stunning . . . haunting."- San Francisco Chronicle Luncheon of the Boating Party "A masterwork."- The San Diego Union-Tribune "Vreeland takes the big, bold brush-strokes of Renoir's personal and artistic oeuvre and displays them with her usual vividness in this eponymous novel. . . .
