As an artist and a woman, this book spoke to me very deeply about the injustices women have to suffer. Society and its rules are determined by men in the 1600's, and we are still fighting for equality today. Our heroine is raped, & then tortured, for telling the truth, & her rapist is given a slap on the wrist. She is the true artist in the household, but her father gets the credit. Perhaps I identified too closely with the heroine, but this book 'spoke' to me.
