Brighten the Corner Where You Are: A Novel Inspired by the Life of Maud Lewis by Carol Bruneau

3.0

3/5 stars. Though the structure of the book is not to my preference, the author portrayed Maud's life remarkably well. The story starts with a gentle narration that slowly builds up the feeling of despair. I could feel the pain of a life lived in poverty, but still painted by the colorful palette of art. Overall, the novel was nicely written and would be even better if the readers had some but not too much knowledge about Maud's life.
