The Paper Quilt
This is an epic of three strong women told through their journals, beginning with Rebekkah in Cornwall, England, and covering three hundred years.

In Zweig’s view, Balzac set out to emulate his childhood hero Napoleon. Writing 20 hours a day, Balzac’s literary ambition was “tantamount to monomania in its persistence, its intensity, and its concentration.” His characters, each similarly driven by one desperate urge, were more vital to Balzac than people in his daily life.
