5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent account of a family living thru the Fr. Revolution, April 5, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: The Glass Blowers (Library Binding)

Daphne du Maurier has written a very moving, fictionalised account of her family during the time of the French Revolution. The historical detail is fascinating, and the family relationships are marvelously done. You can "hear" the voices of the characters, smell the smoke from the glass house and from the guns in war, feel the pain of loss, and the bittersweet quality of victory and reunion. This book should be required reading for studies of both the French Revolution and human nature
