  "Clara and Mr. Tiffany: a Novel" by karsu (see profile) 08/10/11

The novel was very informative on the glassworks process, filled with descriptions of the famous Tiffany lampshades created by the women workers. It also provided interesting characters and historical data from the period. It is told from Clara's point of view,leading at times to overlong emotional spurts that detracted from the flow. Pictures of the pieces made would have contributed to the book.

This is a very enjoyable book. The time frame of the first chapter is the preparation for the Chicago World's Fair - White City. The story moves forward describing the lives of the women behind Tiffany's fabulous glass work.

Tiffany's rule that he will not hire married women impacts the women at the glassworks as does the male laborers ability to unionize.

I was very found of "LOVING FRANK" and was hoping for something as enjoyable. This book will not disappoint, it is a great view of a famous American artist and the women behind him who created his successful works of Art.
