Helpful Score: 5
The author has done a wonderful job with this book. In reading it you get a good feeling for the social mores of the time and a young girl's confusion in navigating them while being pursued by 3 men; the fastidiousness of Vermeer while both setting up a portrait and completing it; and the unique intimacy between artist and model while sitting for that portrait. This is my first book by this author, but I will definitely by looking for more.
