Burning Bright by Tracy Chevalier

5.0

I love this book. Chevalier, who also wrote "Girl With A Pearl Earring", does an excellent job of working history into her fiction. This story of the Kellaway family who leave rural Dorset and come to London in 1792 is captivating. Their new next door neighbor is William Blake. Chavalier weaves her story around the local London circus, the impact of the French Revolution and the lifestyle of poor Londoners.
