Anne Ya Da Leyla
I think what struck me most about this book was that reading it was like looking at a painting. Chevalier has this beautiful, ornate style that creates layers of description on the page, echoing the work of Vermeer. Told through the eyes of Griet, one of Vermeer's maids, the novel unfolds in an intricacy that had me envisioning the way he crushes the minerals to make the paints or imagining the smell of the meat market with utter clarity. I was impressed, too, by Griet's firecracker personality and her presence of mind. She made for an interesting character to see her world through. The apparent amount of research Chevalier put into this piece was also astonishing: every detail of every aspect of Griet's life was told with the confidence of someone who lived it themself. In short, this book is totally worth all the hype it received.
