The Gallery of Vanished Husbands by Natasha Solomons
The success of -The House at Tyneford made it clear that readers adore Natasha Solomons. In -The Gallery of Vanished Husbands, Solomons once again returns to an earlier era, this time to tell the story of one woman's incredible life through the many portraits she inspired.London, 1958. It's the eve of the sexual revolution, but in Juliet Montague's conservative Jewish community where only men can divorce women, she -finds herself a living widow, invisible. Ever since her husband disappeared seven years ago, Juliet has been a hardworking single mother of two and unnaturally practical. But on her thirtieth birthday, that's all about to change. A wealthy young artist asks to paint her portrait, and Juliet, moved by the powerful desire to be seen, enters into the burgeoning art world of 1960s London, which will bring her fame, fortune, and a lifelong love affair.
Natasha Solomons is a screenwriter who lives in Dorset, England. Mr. Rosenblum Dreams in English is her first novel and was inspired in part by her childhood spent at the cottage her own grandparents bought with restitution money from Germany. The recipes in the novel are from her grandmother's ancient cookbook. Solomons is also the author of the New York Times bestseller The House at Tyneford.
