About this listen
From the author of Into the World comes a richly imagined historical novel about obsession, courage, love and marriage.
France, 1794. In the aftermath of the bloody end to the French Revolution, Rose de Beauharnais stumbles from prison on the day she is to be guillotined. Within a decade, she'll transform into the scandalous socialite who marries Napoleon Bonaparte, becomes Empress Josephine of France and builds a garden of wonders with plants and animals from across the globe. But she must give Bonaparte an heir or she risks losing everything.
Two other women, from very different spheres, are tied to the fate of the Empress Josephine - Marthe Desfriches and Anne Serreaux. Their lives are put at risk as they each face confronting obstacles in their relationships and in their desire to become mothers.

A beautiful, sensuous story.
I absolutely loved this story. The way the lives of three very different women intertwined was intriguing and the historical context was fascinating. I loved the gorgeous setting and descriptions of a magical place and time where anything seemed possible.

Loved it
This is one of my historically based fictions and I am now wanting more. Fantastic insight into the life and history of the female experience in 1800 France. Highly recommend
