Voltaire's Calligrapher sounds quite interesting. Thank you Karen for a very fine review. I might use it for next year Global Reading Challenge.
Karen - Thanks, as always for this list of review. I'm glad that you enjoyed the De Santis novel. I like his word, and was hoping that the new one would be good.
