Helpful Score: 1
Sure, it's a bit of chick-fic, but it's also pretty good historical fiction. Apparently Vermeer and Leeuwenhoek really did know each other, and could have been really good friends, as the book implies. Also, naturally, the book made me reacquaint myself with Vermeer's work, and it made me realize (after describing how paintings were set by the artist in his studio) how most Vermeer paintings really are lit from the top left by the same window.
