Book summary

Klara is a seamstress in a small Ontario village, but when her older brother disappears and her lover dies in World War I, she travels to Paris and learns to carve stone like her grandfather did, so that she can participate in the carving of a war memorial.

Media Reviews


"Intermittently clunky symbolism and occasional outcroppings of melodramatic improbability dilute the force of this otherwise impressive fifth novel....Klara is a closely observed and vividly portrayed character."

   -- Kirkus
