A proposito di questo titolo
“Bride of New France is the best piece of historical fiction I’ve read in a long time.” –Telegraph-Journal (Saint John, New Brunswick)

Laure Beauséjour has grown up in a dormitory in Paris surrounded by prostitutes, the insane, and other forgotten women. Despite numerous hardships, she dreams of using her needlework skills to become a seamstress and one day marry a nobleman. But in 1669, Laure’s dreams are cruelly dashed when she is sent across the Atlantic to New France as a fille du roi. Powerful and haunting, Bride of New France is a remarkable tale of a French girl and her struggle to survive in a brutal time and place.

Recensioni della critica

"a wholly original example of social history at its best" - John Barber, The Globe and Mail

“a fully imagined but deeply grounded novel” - John Barber, The Globe and Mail

“Bride of New France will not silence critics of the new social history, nor is it meant to. But if they do want to bring the past alive for a new generation, as they typically claim, they could never find a text more likely to engage the minds and imaginations of young people, especially girls, who have grown immune to the conventional narratives.” - John Barber, The Globe and Mail

“A moody, beautiful piece of historical fiction.” - Dana Medoro, Winnipeg Free Press

"A haunting story of a courageous young woman." - Kathleen Grissom, author of the bestselling The Kitchen House
