The Paris Seamstress
Description
For readers of Lilac Girls and The Nightingale comes an internationally
bestselling World War II novel that spans generations, crosses oceans, and
proves just how much two young women are willing to sacrifice for love and
family. 1940: As the Germans advance upon Paris, young seamstress Estella
Bissette is forced to flee everything she’s ever known. She’s bound for New
York City with her signature gold dress, a few francs, and a dream: to make
her mark on the world of fashion. Present day: Fabienne Bissette journeys to
the Met’s annual gala for an exhibit featuring the work of her ailing
grandmother – a legend of women’s fashion design. But as Fabienne begins to
learn more about her beloved grandmother’s past, she uncovers a story of
tragedy, heartbreak and family secrets that will dramatically change her own
life. “I loved The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah and I have a feeling that I’m
