This lates...The Chaperone is one I am raving about. This latest from Moriarty is a bit different than her other books - set in 1922, this is Moriarty's first foray into historical fiction and it is amazing.<br />Much like the Paris Wife by Paula McLain captured Ernest and Hadley Hemingway's lives, and Loving Frank by Nancy Horan chronicles a clandestine affair between Frank Lloyd Wright and Mamah Borthwick Cheney, The Chaperone features Louise Brooks, a young actress going to New York City for the first time. Her chaperone, nearly middle aged Cora Carlisle, is intrigued by this opportunity to visit New York City, her birthplace, and where she spent her younger years at an orphanage. Louise is quite the handful - upsetting every idea of propriety that Cora has come to know and believe in. From sneaking out at night to getting drunk, Cora's job trying to control Louise is hard work.Ceskahttp://socialconditioning.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-36575332040768063532012-06-14T07:48:02.777-05:002012-06-14T07:48:02.777-05:00Rosemary- I will be interested in whether you will...<b>Rosemary</b>- I will be interested in whether you will have another book featuring Pat Tierney.<br /><br /><b>LynneD</b> - I enjoyed The Chaperone.
