Although some facts may be true, most of the story is fictionalized. Our patrons at the library really enjoy this genre with The Kitchen House, The Help and The Paris Wife some of our most requested titles. NPR has come up with their list of the Top Historical Fiction of 2011 with a few of our favorite authors, Geraldine Brooks and Alice Hoffman on the list. It's nice to see first-time author, Paula McLain of The Paris Wife honored. If you've read her debut novel, The Paris Wife, make sure you see Woody Allen's Midnight in Paris to get a visual of the Paris scene of the 20's.]]> http://www.nassaulibrary.org/centreblog/2011/12/best_historical_fiction_novels.html http://www.nassaulibrary.org/centreblog/2011/12/best_historical_fiction_novels.html Books...
