Editorial Reviews
“This peek inside the private life of secluded poetess Elizabeth Barrett Browning is a delight. The journey her heart takes to go against all she knows and embrace the unknown is suspenseful, sad, and very interesting.”
—RT Book Reviews (4 stars)
“An imaginative biography of the nineteenth-century Victorian poet Elizabeth Barrett…Moser has done wonderful homework.” —Publishers Weekly
“Christy Award winner Moser tells the tale of Elizabeth and Robert from Elizabeth’s viewpoint, using the vernacular of the era. What makes her version unusual is her emphasis on Elizabeth’s great religious faith, not just her legendary romance, an approach that enforces the belief that ‘a good poet is one of God’s singers.’”
