Manage episode 360123253 series 3453902
This week we're talking about historical fiction centered around real women, including a book centered around the Soviet sniper known as Lady Death.
We'll be talking about The Diamond Eye, The Christie Affair, and The Second Mrs. Astor. How well do these books bring these real women to life? What techniques do these books use to bring these very different times and places to life? And which one of these books is my favorite historical fiction book of the year so far?
Let's find out!
You can also think of this episode as an hour-long rant about how much of a disappointment The Second Mrs. Astor was.
