“Moving and fiercely clever. . . a triumph of storytelling.”
—Clare Leslie Hall, New York Times bestselling author of Broken Country

An extraordinary young woman, long reclusive and alone, steps into a life she’d never dreamed possible, with the help of an unorthodox found family in turn-of-the-century France


She had always felt that she must stay in the shadows, that if she asked for little, she could not feel loss. But here was life and joy.

It’s 1896 in Sèvres, France and, from her bedroom window, Odette Huré watches a funeral procession carry her father’s coffin away. She is twenty-one and she has not left the house for ten years.

Odette looks on as her life passes, reading and soothing herself with food. But with the sudden death of her father, the walls she has built around herself begin to crumble. Forced into the world, she discovers to her horror that she is responsible for her father’s considerable fortune and his celebrated stockings factory—renowned for its exquisite designs that adorn the slender ankles of Parisian femmes célèbres.

Now Odette must try and navigate the world she has hidden from for so long. In doing so, she will unearth secrets left behind by her father and the shocking truth of her own identity. With the help of an unorthodox found family, she will discover all that she is capable of. Odette is a heroine for the ages—complex and flawed, but compelling and full of warmth—and we share her joy as she begins to soar.

批評家のレビュー

Praise for Odette Rising:

“I adored this moving and fiercely clever novel about a young reclusive woman’s rebirth into 19th century Parisian society. Absorbing, stirring and vividly drawn, Odette Rising is a triumph of storytelling.”
—Clare Leslie Hall, New York Times bestselling author of Broken Country

“Odette Rising reads like a subverted fairytale, steeped in wonder and daring, while gently upending traditional notions of beauty and propriety along the way. Edwards writes with compassion and insight, guiding her characters toward wholeness, while never demanding they conform. Masterful.”
—Florence Knapp, New York Times bestselling author of The Names

“This evocative coming-of-age tale masterfully explores identity and body image as Odette uncovers dark family secrets and challenges societal limitations. A heartfelt, beautifully researched story about confronting self-limiting beliefs and finding light.”
—Woman & Home

“Set in 19th-century France, this novel celebrates Odette, a 21-year-old who hasn’t left the house in 10 years. All day long, she binges on her two comforts: books and food. When her father dies, she’s left to run his factory, which makes hosiery for the Parisian elite. Forced to go out into the world, this quirky, endearing woman musters her courage and stumbles her way into a new life. You’ll fall in love with Odette as she finally discovers who she was always meant to be.”
—Real Simple

“An agoraphobic heiress braves fin-de-siècle Paris in Edwards’s lush debut. . . Edwards ably captures the era’s inventive energy and Odette’s gradual liberation from a life of loneliness and shame. Readers will fall in love with this plucky heroine.”
—Publishers Weekly


“An entertaining tale of an underdog coming into her own, finding friendship in the limited relationships in her orbit, and embracing life on her own terms.”
—Booklist
