Aug 06, Stargazer rated it really liked it Shelves: I really enjoyed this book, there was only a mention or two of Cora Pearl, the reason I came across the book in the first place but it really set the scene in which she lived her life and was well researched. Fascinating that it was inspired by the author's great-grandmother's diary.
