This fair condition paperback was given to me by my granddaughter for bookcrossing. I have already read another copy so am registering this one for release.

From the back cover:- As historical fiction, Girl with a Pearl Earring convinces, but as a study of human nature, honed by hindsight, it dazzles. Chevalier brings an impressive combination of passion, outrage and perception to a novel which is beautiful and brutal. "The Irish Times"

This book was left on a padded seat by a sunny window in the bar of the Sea Marge Hotel, Overstrand. My husband and I had just had lunch there to celebrate our 44th wedding anniversary.

Journal Entry 3 by Dorothyredboots at York, North Yorkshire United Kingdom on Saturday, September 26, 2015
I picked this up on the charity stall selling books in aid of Diabeties UK at my local Tesco. Coincidentally I have just returned from a holiday in North Norfolk! I love Tracy Chevalier's books and I think this was the first one I read. I will wild release this: I'm going to Skipton tomorrow so I might well pop this in my bag.
