A novel of Mary Cassatt and Edgar Degas’s great romance from
the New York Times bestselling author of My Name Is Mary
Sutter The young Mary Cassatt never thought moving to Paris after
the Civil War to be an artist was going to be easy, but
when, after a decade of work, her submission to the Paris
Salon is rejected, Mary’s fierce determination wavers. Her
father is begging her to return to Philadelphia to find a
husband before it is too late, her sister Lydia is falling
mysteriously ill, and worse, Mary is beginning to doubt
herself. Then one evening a friend introduces her to Edgar
Degas and her life changes forever. Years later she will
learn that he had begged for the introduction, but in that
moment their meeting seems a miracle. So begins the defining
period of her life and the most tempestuous of
relationships. In I Always Loved You, Robin Oliveira brilliantly re-creates
the irresistible world of Belle Époque Paris, writing with
grace and uncommon insight into the passion and foibles of
the human heart.
