By A Customer
This review is from: Consuelo (Hardcover)
Do you like music, romance, history and adventure? If you answer yes, then Consuelo is definitely a book for you. This novel is an inspiration story about essence and purpose of true art, and a life call of true artist. This is a stirring story of talented yang singer life, whose character is filled with love for freedom, sincerity, musical genius and true generosity of the heart. The story unfolds in the midst of factual historical events that take place in real places with actual historical individuals. Due to such historic setting the reader can see the full picture of life in XVIII century Europe and the art development of that time. The novel is a beautiful mix of historic and cultural facts with life and romance of a yang woman, who step by step discovers herself through true purpose of art. It is a trully amazing book! Once you start to read it you can't put it down!

5.0 out of 5 stars
It is the greatest book I ever read!, October 31, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Consuelo (Hardcover)
As you open the book, you immidiatly got cought up in the world of Consuelo, you begin to worry for her, be happy for her, and cry when she is sad. George Sand wrote a book of a music genious, a perfect girl Consuelo, and she really succeded. It was also a great book to use in the School Certificate in New Zealand, 'cause it is very ditailed, and the characters are well diveloped. As I read it I wished the story would never end!
