Helpful Score: 1
Emily Carr was a painter in Victorian British Columbia, whose career was defined by her commitment to paint the Indian totem poles of the region. She never married, and painted until her death. Susan Vreeland, the author, used documentation to begin her fictionalized account of what Emily's life must have been like. The story weaves fact with supposition. The result is an enchanting tale that takes us on a journey of discovery and enchantment of a lifestyle that was soon to disappear from the world forever. Lovely book, and I highly recommend.
