primavera by Mary Jane Beaufrand ‧ RELEASE DATE: March 1, A swiftly told story tied to a bloody piece of Florentine history and illuminated with the lore of painting, goldsmithing and poison. Primavera, by Mary Jane Beaufrand Flora will never have the marital bliss of her sister Domenica or even her mother's affection, but unlike her sister or mother, she enjoys the freedom to come and go around her family's estate Pazzi Palazzo. It is the late 15th century and the setting is Florence. Beaufrand, Mary Jane. Primavera. The Italian Renaissance. Two powerful families are about to feud--the Medici and the Pazzi--and our heroine, Lorenza, nicknamed Flora, is soon to be caught in the middle. Power. Wealth. Prestige. That's what it comes down to for most of the men and women in both families. Flora, on the other hand is different.
Primavera is an intriguing look into the life of an aristocratic family with a tenuous hold on their power. Alliances and betrayals abound. Flora's unique position within the household as an aristocratic daughter, but the one nobody pays attention to, grants her a broader perspective. PRIMAVERA is a captivating read. I found myself rooting for Flora and Emilio. Ms. Beaufrand painted her characters so realistically that I felt their pain, their fear, their guilt, and yes, even their joy. True to great historical fiction, the author did not flinch when she described some of the tragedies that befell her characters. Mary Jane Beaufrand lives in Seattle, Washington, with her husband, two children, and a stubborn basset hound. She has an MFA in creative writing from Bennington College and is the author of Primavera.
