From the author of the international bestseller Girl With a Pearl Earring and At the Edge of the Orchard, comes a stirring eighteenth-century coming-of-age tale In the waning days of eighteenth-century London, poet, artist, and printer William Blake works in obscurity as England is rocked by the shock waves of the French Revolution. Next door, the Kellaway family has just moved in, and country boy Jem Kellaway strikes up a tentative friendship with street-savvy Maggie Butterfield. As their stories intertwine with Blake's, the two children navigate the confusing and exhilarating path to adolescence, and inspire the poet to create the work that enshrined his genius.

The story will take you from the early days in Georgia, Camp Oglethorpe, as the medical specialist begin to learn about army life. Onto the Camp Lee, Virginia, experience, where non specialists learn quickly how to become soldiers. Experience the journey across the Atlantic Ocean and into the north east corner of France where men heard and saw the rigors of a horrific scene from their field hospital. You won’t forget this first-hand account, from the story written by the solders, as they use humor to cover up what they actually saw and felt. As it is sometimes called, “humor in uniform”, will help you see their journey to and back from war, as they record life in the army.

Tras la trágica muerte de uno de sus hijos, la familia Kellaway se traslada a Londres para iniciar una nueva vida. Allí, los hermanos Jem y Massie conocen a Maggie, una londinense de pura cepa con quien se embarcan en una aventura de iniciación y aprendizaje. Las bulliciosas calles de Londres, las sucias fábricas, los barrios de trabajadores y la inestabilidad política generada por los ecos de la Revolución Francesa son el telón de fondo de esta intensa novela, en donde los tres jóvenes conocen el amor y a uno de los grandes poetas de nuestro tiempo: William Blake. «Chevalier regala el don de la vida a la novela histórica.» The Independent
