À propos de ce contenu audio

 Mme. Clicquot builds her legacy as the maker of France’s best champagne while, in the future, a modern divorcée looks to her letters for inspiration in this vibrant historical fiction novel that is “sheer, sparkling perfection” (Susanna Kearsley, New York Times bestselling author).

Reims, France, 1805: Barbe-Nicole Clicquot has just lost her beloved husband but is determined to pursue their dream of creating the premier champagne house in France, now named for her new identity as a widow: Veuve Clicquot. With the Russians poised to invade, competitors fighting for her customers, and the Napoleonic court politics complicating matters, she must set herself apart if she, and her business, are to survive.

In present day Chicago, broken from her divorce, Natalie Taylor runs away to Paris. In a book stall by the Seine, Natalie finds a collection of the Widow Clicquot’s published letters and uses them as inspiration to step out of her comfort zone and create a new, empowered life for herself. But when her Parisian escape takes a shocking turn, she’s forced to make a difficult choice. Should she accept her losses and return home, or fight for the future she’s only dreamed about?

“The Champagne Letters, which sparkles like the finest champagne, will inspire you to reach both for a glass of bubbly—and for the things you really want out of life” (Kristin Harmel, New York Times bestselling author). Fiction Fiction historique Roman féminin Sagas

Commentaires

"Narrating duo Cassandra Campbell and Jackie Sanders team up for this charming dual-timeline story of strong women with a love of champagne. In soft French-accented tones, Jackie Sanders becomes Barbe-Nicole Clicquot, widow of the creator of Veuve Clicquot champagne. She recounts her difficult life as a vintner during the Napoleonic Era through letters to her granddaughter. In contemporary times, bright-voiced Chicagoan Natalie Taylor, voiced by Cassandra Campbell, seeks to reinvent herself in Paris after her abrupt divorce. Natalie discovers Clicquot’s letters and through them finds strength to meet life’s new challenges. Campbell’s hard-edged French accent for characters in the present complements Sanders’s melodic French tones for the widow and her compatriots in the nineteenth century."
