A Mad, Wicked Folly

En el Londres de 1909, entre la opulencia y las estrictas normas sociales, Victoria Darling, de diecisiete años, sueña con ser artista, algo casi imposible para una joven de su clase. Tras posar desnuda para una clase de dibujo, es expulsada de su colegio francés, y sus escandalizados padres intentan casarla con un hombre rico. Pero ella se inscribe en el Royal College of Art, se une al movimiento sufragista y se enamora de un joven humilde que podría ser el amor de su vida. Una emotiva novela de crecimiento sobre el arte, la ambición y la independencia.

About the Book

Set in 1909 London amid glittering wealth and rigid social rules, seventeen-year-old Victoria Darling dreams of becoming an artist, a nearly impossible goal for a young woman of her class. After posing nude for a life-drawing class, she's expelled from her French finishing school, and her horrified parents push her toward marriage with a wealthy suitor. Instead, Victoria enrolls at the Royal College of Art, joins the suffragist movement, and finds herself drawn to a humble young man who may become the love of her life. A vivid coming-of-age story about art, ambition, and independence.
