In 2010, an apartment in Paris is unlocked for the first time in seventy years.
This well written and researched book weaves a story of the owner of that apartment, Madame Marthe de Florian, a famous courtesan of the Belle Epoque era, as told to her granddaughter Solange just prior to the onset of WWII. It also continues with Solange's story following her departure from Paris.
I have always been fascinated by this apartment and its famous occupant, and enjoyed learning more of this amazing story.
Highly recommended for lovers of historical based on fact.
