Remarkable Creatures by Tracy Chevalier
Historical Fiction
A remarkable story when women made astounding discoveries, but had to remain seen but not heard (and in some cases, could not even be seen). When women, but not yet society, appreciated an unmarried life as a freedom, as independence, as full. A time when scientific discoveries turned the world upside down. Amazing to think about all the things society once believed that have been proven to be untrue and it changes everything (the world being flat, the sun revolving around the earth and creatures becoming extinct)! Chevalier has once again brought these characters and this era to life. She leads with her heart, which what makes all her books fantastic!
