Acerca de esta escucha
Perfect for fans of bubbly wine and Kristin Harmel, this historical fiction novel follows Mme. Clicquot as she builds her legacy, and the modern divorcée who looks to her letters for inspiration.
Reims, France, 1805: Barbe-Nicole Clicquot has just lost her beloved husband but is determined to pursue their dream of creating the premier champagne house in France, now named for her new identity as a widow: Veuve Clicquot. With the Russians poised to invade, competitors fighting for her customers, and the Napoleonic court politics complicating matters, she must set herself apart quickly and permanently if she, and her business, are to survive.
In present day Chicago, broken from her divorce, Natalie Taylor runs away to Paris. In a book stall by the Seine, Natalie finds a collection of the Widow Clicquot’s published letters and uses them as inspiration to step out of her comfort zone and create a new, empowered life for herself. But when her Parisian escape takes a shocking and unexpected turn, she’s forced to make a choice. Should she accept her losses and return home, or fight for the future she’s only dreamed about? What would the widow do?

Connie Goodwin is an expert on America’s fractured past with witchcraft. A young, tenure-track professor in Boston, she’s earned career success by studying the history of magic in colonial America - especially women’s home recipes and medicines - and by exposing society's threats against women fluent in those skills. But beyond her studies, Connie harbors a secret: She is the direct descendant of a woman tried as a witch in Salem, an ancestor whose abilities were far more magical than the historical record shows.

It seems nearly perfect: the high arched window alcoves and tall granite pillars, the overspill of lilac at the front gate and the immaculate playing fields, the giggling students, the dusty, oak-lined library, and the dark, festering secret she has come to expose. At first, Lou’s working-class status makes her the consummate outsider, though all that changes when she is befriended by the beautiful and wealthy Shauna Power.

Historia
It’s 1995, and Alex Dean has it all: a spot at Cambridge University next year, the love of an amazing woman named Holly and all the time in the world ahead of him. That is until a brutal encounter with a ghost from his past sees him beaten, battered and almost drowning in the Thames. He wakes the next day to find he’s in a messy, derelict room he’s never seen before, in grimy clothes he doesn’t recognize, with no idea of how he got there. A glimpse in the mirror tells him he’s older—much older—and has been living a hard life, his features ravaged by time and poor decisions.

Historia
Connie Goodwin is an expert on America’s fractured past with witchcraft. A young, tenure-track professor in Boston, she’s earned career success by studying the history of magic in colonial America - especially women’s home recipes and medicines - and by exposing society's threats against women fluent in those skills. But beyond her studies, Connie harbors a secret: She is the direct descendant of a woman tried as a witch in Salem, an ancestor whose abilities were far more magical than the historical record shows.

Historia
Early one morning, less than a month after her 18th birthday, Alexandrina Victoria is roused from bed with the news that her uncle William IV has died, and she is now queen of England. The men who run the country have doubts about whether this sheltered young woman, who stands less than five feet tall, can rule the greatest nation in the world. Surely she must rely on her mother and her venal advisor, Sir John Conroy, or her uncle, the Duke of Cumberland, who are all too eager to relieve her of the burdens of power.

I wasn’t disappointed.
Who can’t relate to Natalie? Or at least empathize with her? Discovering her husband of more than twenty years is having an affair? Leaving that marriage with half of the belongings and downsizing from a house to a condo? Knowing those around her, including her best friend Molly, all feel sorry for her?
She needs out.
If only for a break.
So she heads to France. A misunderstanding lands her in a lovely hotel room with a new friend who is dedicated to helping her start fresh. So what if all this is based on that misunderstanding? Natalie’s entitled to some happiness, right?
As she’s perusing a book store, she finds the letters of Barbe-Nicole Clicquot. A widow whose story began more than 200 years ago. Yet whose experiences as a widow, making her way in the world, are so relevant and near to Natalie’s own journey of self-awareness. Barbe-Nicole defined herself as a wife for years. Natalie did everything to be the best wife to the husband she later discovered had cheated. Both women found themselves alone at times in their lives they didn’t predict. And while Natalie has modern conveniences and the women’s movement to thank for her relative independence, Barbe-Nicole was very much stuck in the patriarchal world where women were defined by the men in their lives.
She fought against that her entire life.
When Natalie’s fresh start turns into more, a reader might be forgiven for expecting the story to go a certain way.
Ah, but Kate’s got something up her sleeve.
I won’t say more except I couldn’t have been more pleased with the end of the story. How both women – Natalie and Barbe-Nicole – forged their own paths. The book left me breathless.
Cassandra Campbell and Jackie Saunders were truly two phenomenal narrators. From Natalie’s subtle American to Barbe-Nicole’s lyrical French accent, I was swept away by the talents of the women. From Napoleon’s France through to modern day Paris and the French countryside, I enjoyed a rich tapestry that made me want to visit this wonderful country.
This book is a must listen. I know I’m a better person for having done it.
Stunning
