Book
The Wayward Muse
by Elizabeth Hickey
Raised in the slums of Oxford, seventeen-year-old Jane Burden is discovered by the charismatic and irreverent painter Dante Gabriel Rossetti, with whom she falls madly in love before circumstances prompt her marriage to the shy craftsman William Morris.
Book
Memoirs of a Muse
by Lara Vapnyar
Humorous, charming, and written with the same beguiling grace and vividness as her story collection "There Are Jews in My House," Vapnyar's first novel is a poignant and comic story about a delightfully sincere modern-day muse.
Book
SPQR IV: The Temple of the Muses
by John Maddox Roberts
When Roman junior senator Decius Caecilius Metellus the Younger has a chance to join a diplomatic mission to Alexandria, he welcomes the opportunity to temporarily elude his enemies in the Eternal City-even though it means leaving his beloved Rome. Decius is just beginning to enjoy the outpost's many exotic pleasures when the suspicious death of an irascible philosopher occurs, coinciding with the puzzling and apocalyptic ravings of a charismatic cult leader. Intrigued, Decius requests and is given permission by the Egyptian Pharaoh to investigate the heinous crime. What he discovers is beyond shocking. And when the corpse of a famous courtesan mysteriously turns up in his bed, Decius suddenly finds himself entangled in a web of conspiracy far more widespread and dangerous than he ever imagined-one that threatens to bring about the downfall of the entire Empire.
