A review by deborahmaryrose
Sofie & Cecilia by Katherine Ashenburg

5.0

I loved this book, as it covered all my favourite things: information about another country, art, relationships, & history. I too consider myself a artist, and also coming late to full expression of my talent because I was involved with raising a family and working full time, I can relate to Sophie’s life. I also relate to the feeling that as a woman, our lives, our desires and expressions of ourselves as individuals often takes second seat to our husband’s life and the raising of children. I still struggle to have myself defined more as an artistic person, than as a wife and mother.
