En underbart vacker och poetisk bok om en kvinnas dröm att slå sig fri från samhällets inhängnad. Utspelas under sekelskiftet 18-1900 i de sk franska kvarteren i New Orleans. En kvinnas plats var i hemmet men Edna drömmer om något större, något mer, men det kan komma till ett stort pris.

Jag har läst många böcker men skulle jag välja en favorit så är det denna, tänker på den ofta. Språket och sättet att bära historian framåt är enastående och poetiskt, den kommer att stanna med dig länge. En juvel som många missat.

Nyckelord: Kvinnohistoria, New Orleans, sekelskifte, familj, kärlek, feminism och könsroller.
