"Shreve is a master storyteller....[An] intricate portrait of the American woman and her creative centrality inside and outside the home."
THE MIAMI HERALD
They are four generations of women--Anna, Amanda, Sara, and Eleanor--and their remarkable story spans a hundred years, beginning when a willful beauty arrives in America in 1890, and goes on to love, passion, and scandal. She brings into the world a talented daughter whose photographs capture the soul of the twentieth century, and in turn she has a daughter, who in then has a daughter of her own--all of whom refuse to bow to the conventions of their times. Like their mothers before them, they will charter vast new territory as daughters of the new world.
