There's
something inspirational about the Morris book award, something in the idea that
a writer's debut book can be so beautifully crafted, it will turn heads. Belle
Epoque by Elizabeth Ross is one such piece. Mesmerizing and clever, Ross
brings turn of the century France to life through the eyes of young Maude
Pichon. In a novel about shaping one's own destiny, with a love story for good
measure, Maude pursues the timeless goals of chasing her dreams. With lovable
characters and a unique storyline, readers will be drawn in with the first
chapter, enjoy the unexpected plot twists, and be left satisfied in the end
with this (refreshingly) stand-alone story.
