![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Paris! June, 1889! The same year as The Gilded Wolves! The year of the Exposition Universelle! It’s almost time for the 100th anniversary of the Storming of the Bastille! The Eiffel Tower makes it’s grand debut! Vincent Van Gogh paints The Starry Night! The Wall Street Journal is established! Seattle, in spite of the incessant rain, somehow manages to catch fire! Bustles are slowly on their way out, but weighty ornaments added to dresses is super in! Ribbons! Flounces! Lace! Bows! All that, plus corsets laced far tighter than they should be and no air conditioning! Sounds great!Īnyway: it’s been two years since the events of Spectacle, and our heroine Nathalie is now 18. To my fellow non-French speakers out there: vin de coca does NOT mean “chocolate wine.” It really doesn’t.Īnd by that, I mean: Sensational, sequel to Spectacle by Jodie Lynn Zdrok! Because life in late 19th century Paris was basically just Another Periodbut real. ![]()
