Hello dear readers! I recently had the delight of reading Fiona Mountain's novel Lady of the Butterflies and I loved it so much that I picked up a copy to give away to one of my lucky readers to spread the love!
About Lady of the Butterflies
SYNOPSIS They say I'm mad and perhaps it's true.
It is well known that lust brings madness and desperation and ruin. But upon my oath, I never meant any harm. All I wanted was to be happy, to love and to be loved in return, and for my life to count for something.
That is not madness, is it?
So begins the story of Eleanor Glanville, the beautiful daughter of a seventeenth-century Puritan nobleman whose unconventional passions scandalized society. When butterflies were believed to be the souls of the dead, Eleanor's scientific study of them made her little better than a witch. But her life-set against a backdrop of war, betrayal, and sexual obsession-was that of a woman far ahead of her time.

ReplyDeleteI feel the cover of the trade paperback looks too modern for the time setting. I prefer the hardcover's looks so much more.

I love reading about women who went ahead with their education even though it was not permitted. Would like to know more about the butterfly woman. Wonder how many others have advanced science and other fields in the past and we have no information about them. Also, this book is definitely not boring!!!

I was intrigued by this book when I read your review. I have an interest in natural science and can remember a time when I was often the only female involved in studies and programs. How much more difficult for her in her time period.
