This was a brilliant book.
I was first drawn to it by the cover, which had a look of historical fiction about it.
I was not disappointed.
Even the chapters were written in different time periods which I enjoyed. It is a credit to the author that this non-linear style does not take away from the cohesion of the novel
As a Historian and Master’s student who has focussed on both feminism and early photography, I found the main themes in this work to be particularly interesting. However, I would urge anyone put off by a feminist angle not to be - this book is not overbearing in its messages and that is something I was particularly fond of throughout the read.
The writing style was not so complicated that it was confusing and so the story travels along at a nice speed - highly recommend!
