I have rated this generously as a 3 star. Despite some of the subject matter, I found the story just a bit insipid. My peak Chevalier are ‘Girl with a pearl earring' and ‘Remarkable creatures', in both of which I was completely absorbed into the times and places she created - but here I felt merely to be a watcher. Perhaps I needed to have an interest in quilting?
