The Seamstress Frances De Pontes Peebles
Awards Brazil’s Sacatar Artist’s fellowship The Michener Copernicus Society of America Award J. William Fulbright Fellowship to Brazil for 2003-2004 Elle Magazine’s Grand Prix 2008 Reviews and Notes According to BC Magazine, “The Seamstress was a remarkable feat of research, industry, writing and beauty.” "The Seamstress is a gripping portrait of the lives of two sisters caught in the political unbalance of a country at a crossroads. Bittersweet, beautifully written, this sweeping saga is as impossible to put down as it is to forget." -- Aryn Kyle, author of THE GOD OF ANIMALS "This impressive debut novel seduces with its sweeping story, strong characterization, and extraordinarily vivid detail. A good read-alike for fans of Isabel Allende." -- Booklist (starred review) Awards, Reviews, Notes etc.
