Gregory Maguire, critically acclaimed author of Wicked, dividends along with his eagerly anticipated second novel. Using a amazing reincarnation of the Cinderella account set in 17th hundred years Holland, Maguire deftly weaves mutually stories of interior and outside beauty. Iris is a plain but intelligent young girl. Compelled to flee England with her recently widowed mother, Margarethe, and her aged sister, she discovers herself swept into a life that becomes a legend. Arriving destitute, the family becomes used in the home of a wealthy tulip vendor. Margarethe is hired as the housekeeper and Iris as a associate to the merchant's stunningly beautiful but troubled daughter. If the merchant's wife dies, Margarethe seizes the moment, and a wicked stepmother is born. Narrated with nature and comfort by Jenny Sterlin, Gregory Maguire's perspective of Cinderella is a sweeping account of love and deception, where a ball, a good-looking prince and the betrayal of a daughter can result in everyone living happily ever after.
