A single thread : a novel / Tracy Chevalier.
From the bestselling author of "Girl with a Pearl Earring" comes an immersive, moving story of a woman crafting her own life at the dawn of the Second World War. After the Great War took both her beloved brother and her fiancé, Violet Speedwell has become a "surplus woman."
