"Ingenious."
*Frances Wilson - Times Literary Supplement*
"Straight from the pages of a novel by Edith Wharton or Henry
James."
*The Times*
"[Lucey pieces together] lost stories, and the stormy brew of
scandal and repression that affected these women—and Sargent
himself."
*Elle*
"As rich as [Sargent’s] portraits are, the textural evidence in
which Ms. Lucey ensnares them is finer still."
*The Wall Street Journal*
"It [Sargent's Women] tells of an era long gone yet still
fascinating."
*Choice*
"[These women] were smart, passionate, willful, adventurous and
striking-looking.… Lucey’s prose is invitingly conversational and
quick-flowing."
*The Washington Post*
"... these four well-researched mini-biographies are vibrant and
never less than engaging."
*The Herald*
