Book Review
The Last Runaway by Tracy Chevalier.
This is a new book by an author I have enjoyed reading.
I've read several of her books, the most recent being Remarkable Creatures in 2010.
Chevalier is a master at writing historical fiction.
Most of her books are based loosely on an actual historical event or person or creation.
Girl with the Pearl Earring paints a fictional narrative around a most famous painting and painter. Remarkable Creatures is based on obscure, but historical figures. Burning Bright depicts friendships with a historical painter-poet.

Historical fiction with what Ms. Chevalier does well.
It was easy to pick up this book and expect an enjoying read.
I was not disappointed.
