Dear Librarian, It’s summertime, and what better time to read about love and passion – and at the same time, escape to France? In my hardcover debut novel, THE DRESSMAKER, Claude Reynaud, a humble tailor who lives in a quiet town outside Paris, falls head over heels in love with a sophisticated Parisian woman who seeks him out to design … her wedding dress. She is carried away by his charm and sensitivity and … I will not give away the rest! I hope THE DRESSMAKER lives up to the Library Journal review, which called it “reminiscent of a Jane Austen novel” with “a contemporary edge and an unconventional ending that reveals the truthfulness of deep and sometimes unrequited love.” And I hope you will keep your readers happy with THE DRESSMAKER and that the novel will move from hand to hand to hand all year long! All the best, Lizzie Oberbeck www.elizabethoberbeck.com Book Sense Pick - Literary Guild Featured Alternate - Rhapsody Book Club
