このコンテンツについて
A breathtaking reimagining of Cinderella, as told through the eyes of its iconic "evil" stepmother, revealing a propulsive love story about the lengths a mother will go to for her children
Twice-widowed, Lady Etheldreda Verity Isolde Tremaine Bramley is solely responsible for her two children, a priggish stepdaughter, a razor-taloned peregrine falcon, and a crumbling manor. Fierce and determined, Ethel clings to the respectability her deceased husband’s title affords her, hoping it will secure her daughters’ future through marriage.
When a royal ball offers the chance to change everything, Ethel risks her pride in pursuit of an invitation for all three of her daughters—only to see her hopes fulfilled by the wrong one. As an engagement to the future king unfolds, Ethel discovers a sordid secret hidden in the depths of the royal family, forcing her to choose between the security she craves and the wellbeing of the stepdaughter who has rebuffed her at every turn.
As if Bridgerton met Circe, and exhilarating to its core, Lady Tremaine reimagines the myth of the evil stepmother at the heart of the world’s most famous fairytale. It is a battle cry for a mother’s love for her daughters, and a celebration of women everywhere who make their own fortunes.
批評家のレビュー
"Feminist, fierce, and wildly fresh: Lady Tremaine is my kind of fairy tale. As we resurrect and re-examine the historical women we’ve maligned, Hochhauser insists we include the wicked stepmothers. Hochhauser’s prose is poetic, her story hypnotic, and her characters will live in my head and heart forever. Lady Tremaine is destined to be one of the biggest books of the year." —Glennon Doyle, #1 bestselling author of Untamed
"Lady Tremaine left me in awe. Breathing new life into a timeless fairy tale, this is the story of a complex, resilient mother who demonstrates that love does not always come naturally: it is often built on difficult choices. A must-read for anyone who believes in the power of second chances, the nuances of motherhood, and the ways in which strength evolves through adversity. Hochhauser's storytelling is a poignant reminder that even fairy tale villains have a story worth telling. My favorite read of the year so far!" —Sarah Penner, New York Times bestselling author of The Lost Apothecary
"Hochhauser's prose is a gift. Lady Tremaine is one of the best novels I've read in a long time—for its sentences, for its grace, and for its originality. I haven't stopped thinking about it. I am envious of any reader picking up this book for the first time." —Olivia Clare Friedman, author of Here Lies
"Both intimate and epic in scope, Lady Tremaine shatters our preconceptions of a famous fairy tale villain, presenting instead a mesmerizing portrait of a woman who discovers that real enchantment comes from daring to rewrite your own destiny. With spellbinding prose and haunting moral complexity, Hochhauser excavates the heart of a timeless story, revealing the profound humanity that exists in the spaces between good and wicked. A stunning debut." —Kimberly King Parsons, National Book Award finalist and author of We Were the Universe
"Wit, wisdom, poetry on every page. Hochhauser brilliantly takes a classic from a shelf and reads from it in a voice that's both hauntingly familiar and crisp in contemporary understanding. Her reappraisal of the cages we build for ourselves—in marriage and in love—reveals the freedom we possess, if only we’d look up and wait patiently for the hunting hawk’s heart to return to our outstretched arm. Amazing work." —Mark Richard, author of The Ice at the Bottom of the World
