Ebook {Epub PDF} Muse by Mary Novik

 · Muse by Mary Novik A richly engaging historical adventure in the vein of The Winter Palace and The Malice of Fortune. Listed in the Literature category on Art In Fiction, Muse () is an historical novel by Canadian author Mary Novik which tells the story of the fascinating woman who was the inspiration for Petrarch's awe-inspiring love poetry. Muse is Mary Novik's second novel; a story about a young woman named Solange LeBlanc who was born to a harlot in 14th century. She becomes orphaned and sent into a Benedictine convent. There, the nuns believe her to be gifted as a visionary. Her clairvoyant dreams raise her status while also bringing danger from those who are superstitious/5(13). Muse is also set in an historical city heaving with life–Avignon in the fourteenth century when the popes lived there. When I visited the immense palace of the popes, I was stunned by the secular frescoes in Pope Clement VI’s bedchamber and found myself wondering what exactly went on there.

Muse is a sweeping historical epic that magically evokes the Renaissance, capturing a time and place caught between the shadows of the past and the promise of a new cultural awakening.

Éditions Hurtubise Release Date: Febru; Imprint. - "With Muse, Novik has crafted a heroine who pushes against the constraints of her time and station, placing her in a richly imagined world that thrums with life." --The Globe and Mail.

Now we have done that and more, with all three novels published–my Conceit, Jen’s The End of East, and June’s Underground. It all started with a quickening in my mother’s womb and my birth in the Jubilee Hospital in Victoria, a few blocks from where my mother herself was born. I’ve returned to my birthplace infrequently over the years. Muse is Novik’s second novel, and is set deep in history, both in time and detail. Novik weaves the story of fictitious protagonist, Solange, a spunky redheaded seer, into events of fourteenth-century Avignon including the historic personalities of the time: the poet Petrarch, his brother Gherardo, and Pope Clement VI.
