The Birth of Venus
by Sarah Dunant
This was a Vanaheim Book Club selection. I was in need of a book to get me interested after getting stuck in Anna Karenina. I loved this book.
The plot: Alessandra Cecchi grows up in the Florentine Renaissance and is married off to her brother's lover. She has an affair with her painter and ends up in a convent.
Thrilling turn of events that I did not expect.
