• Review:  This novel has it all!  Travel from post French Revolution France to England to post Revolutionary War America to Australia and back again, with Parrot, an indentured servant, and Olivier, a French "child of the Guillotine" and the French Revolution.  Root for their loves to flourish, for their fortunes to grow, for their art to be appreciated, and for their minds and hearts to be opened.  I did! If you enjoy a multi-themed plot with engaging characters, then this is for you.  I found the observations of the characters of various political systems and class systems to be really interesting!
