The cover of my book showed a painting with the five sisters, and as I read the book, and kept looking at that painting, I thought what a remarkable job the artist did, of portraying the expressions of the girls – they perfectly matched their personalities as the author described them. But then. When I entered the book on LT, I noticed that other editions had the same picture, but as a photograph. So I sought information online and found an interview with the author, who said that this, her first novel, is based on an actual photograph of her mother and her aunts. So – it was the author who did a remarkable job of writing her subjects to fit the pictured expressions!
This was a very sweet story. ( )
