Girl With a Pearl Earring by Tracy Chevalier
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
We just visited the High Museum in Atlanta to see the Vermeer's Girl with a Pearl Earring, so then I wanted to read this book. I didn't like it; none of the characters seem real. They are plotted out realistically -- father a tile-painter in the city of Delft, girl sent off to work for the painter because all the artisans and artists stuck together, sister plucked away by the plague. A believable plot without passion made me not want to see the movie.
