Dear Reader,
A first novel is always a thrilling event for a writer. Still CEZANNE'S QUARRY brought me many unexpected pleasures: excellent reviews, an endorsement from the great granddaughter of Paul Cézanne, and, as I write this, being a finalist for the Oregon Book Award in fiction.
Set in August 1885, CEZANNE'S QUARRY is a murder mystery, a love story, and an exploration of the role of women, art, science and religion in ways that are still relevant today. Reviewers have found it "compelling," "captivating" and "enthralling."
Please visit my website, www.cezannesquarry.com to find out more about me, the book, my meeting with Aline Cézanne, and some fun facts about the artist. Write me at BarbaraCPope@gmail.com to sign up to win one of five autographed copies of the brand new paperback edition. At my writers' group meeting on December 10, the other five members will each draw a name and write the winner a note about her work.
I hope that CEZANNE'S QUARRY will bring you unexpected pleasures!
