She chose paint. By the time she was seventeen, Artemisia did more than grind pigment. She was one of Rome's most talented painters, even if no one knew her name. But Rome in 1610 was a city where men took what they wanted from women, and in the aftermath of rape Artemisia faced another terrible choice: a life of silence or a life of truth, no matter the cost. *He will not consume* *my every thought.* *I am a painter.* *I will paint.* *I will show you* *what a woman can do.*","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2gve6b4pxswfe1n72r9w2w.jpg?v=175408a231","LAAvU=-N,-tTT#n2s+tAE60e68xc",2018,320,[372],{"id":373,"slug":374,"name":375},"01kx2e2jez3xefnxhnpd812av5","joy-mccullough-xo1r","Joy McCullough",[377,378,382,386,390],{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":18},{"id":379,"name":380,"slug":381,"is_fiction":17},88,"Biography","biography",{"id":383,"name":384,"slug":385,"is_fiction":18},16,"Young Adult","young-adult",{"id":387,"name":388,"slug":389,"is_fiction":17},113,"Art","art",{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":17},[],{"pace":332,"complexity":7,"audience":207,"mood":393,"themes":394,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[209,210],[306],{"id":396,"slug":397,"title":398,"description":399,"primary_cover_url":400,"cover_blurhash":401,"first_publish_year":402,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":403,"authors":404,"genres":409,"series":416,"enrichment":417},"01kx25mvtntq2tjx0dq7qhxq0j","bellman-black-svjk","Bellman & Black","#1 New York Times bestselling author “An astonishing work of genius.”—Bookreporter.com “Magically transformative.”—Bookpage Can one moment in time haunt you forever? From the instant #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Thirteenth Tale comes a “poetic and mysterious” (Booklist) story that will haunt you to your very core. Caught up in a moment of boyhood competition, William Bellman recklessly aims his slingshot at a rook resting on a branch, killing the bird instantly. It is a small but cruel act, and is soon forgotten. By the time he is grown, with a wife and children of his own, William seems to have put the whole incident behind him. It was as if he never killed the thing at all. But rooks don’t forget… Years later, when a stranger mysteriously enters William’s life, his fortunes begin to turn—and the terrible and unforeseen consequences of his past indiscretion take root. In a desperate bid to save the only precious thing he has left, he enters into a rather strange bargain, with an even stranger partner. Together, they found a decidedly macabre business.

It is 1940. France has fallen. Bombs are dropping on London. And President Roosevelt is promising he won't send our boys to fight in \"foreign wars.\"But American radio gal Frankie Bard, the first woman to report from the Blitz in London, wants nothing more than to bring the war home. Frankie's radio dispatches crackle across the Atlantic ocean, imploring listeners to pay attention--as the Nazis bomb London nightly, and Jewish refugees stream across Europe. Frankie is convinced that if she can just get the right story, it will wake Americans to action and they will join the fight.Meanwhile, in Franklin, Massachusetts, a small town on Cape Cod, Iris James hears Frankie's broadcasts and knows that it is only a matter of time before the war arrives on Franklin's shores. In charge of the town's mail, Iris believes that her job is to deliver and keep people's secrets, passing along the news that letters carry. And one secret she keeps are her feelings for Harry Vale, the town mechanic, who inspects the ocean daily, searching in vain for German U-boats he is certain will come. Two single people in midlife, Iris and Harry long ago gave up hope of ever being in love, yet they find themselves unexpectedly drawn toward each other.Listening to Frankie as well are Will and Emma Fitch, the town's doctor and his new wife, both trying to escape a fragile childhood and forge a brighter future. When Will follow's Frankie's siren call into the war, Emma's worst fears are realized. Promising to return in six months, Will goes to London to offer his help, and the lives of the three women entwine.Alternating between an America still cocooned in its inability to grasp the danger at hand and a Europe being torn apart by war, The Postmistress gives us two women who find themselves unable to deliver the news, and a third woman desperately waiting for news yet afraid to hear it.Sarah Blake's The Postmistress shows how we bear the fact that war goes on around us while ordinary lives continue. Filled with stunning parallels to today, it is a remarkable novel.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2cg027cjj26vswvtrnhqny.jpg?v=93fc3324ac","LRNJ?@t7_Nt6?bogDjV@tkWAR6WB",326,[431],{"id":432,"slug":433,"name":434},"01kx2cg00t4qb1bcngwjjfc98g","sarah-blake-smkm","Sarah Blake",[436,437,438,439],{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":18},{"id":229,"name":230,"slug":231,"is_fiction":18},{"id":238,"name":239,"slug":240,"is_fiction":18},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":17},[],{"pace":244,"complexity":7,"audience":207,"mood":442,"themes":443,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[246,247],[],{"id":445,"slug":446,"title":447,"description":448,"primary_cover_url":449,"cover_blurhash":450,"first_publish_year":369,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":451,"authors":452,"genres":457,"series":465,"enrichment":466},"01kx26ynsmsagqbwgrwm0p6wn2","beautiful-exiles-ifeg","Beautiful Exiles","Key West, 1936. Headstrong, accomplished journalist Martha Gellhorn is confident with words but less so with men when she meets disheveled literary titan Ernest Hemingway in a dive bar. Their friendship--forged over writing, talk, and family dinners--flourishes into something undeniable in Madrid while they're covering the Spanish Civil War. Martha reveres him. The very married Hemingway is taken with Martha--her beauty, her ambition, and her fearless spirit. And as Hemingway tells her, the most powerful love stories are always set against the fury of war. The risks are so much greater. They're made for each other. With their romance unfolding as they travel the globe, Martha establishes herself as one of the world's foremost war correspondents, and Hemingway begins the novel that will win him the Nobel Prize for Literature. Beautiful Exiles is a stirring story of lovers and rivals, of the breathless attraction to power and fame, and of one woman--ahead of her time--claiming her own identity from the wreckage of love.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx26yntnqnkm14cz76cfm5md.jpg?v=2682340dad","LIGQ|EAc=Y5T}?jYt6t6+@RPoff5",384,[453],{"id":454,"slug":455,"name":456},"01krg431yfpv0nep6vhfebx60c","meg-waite-clayton-ag0l","Meg Waite Clayton",[458,459,460,461],{"id":271,"name":272,"slug":273,"is_fiction":18},{"id":28,"name":29,"slug":30,"is_fiction":18},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":17},{"id":462,"name":463,"slug":464,"is_fiction":18},4,"Romance","romance",[],{"pace":332,"complexity":7,"audience":207,"mood":467,"themes":470,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[468,469],"romantic","nostalgic",[],[],[]]
