Why do they seek out: The Glass Chateau (by Stephen P. Kiernan)

#TheGlassChâteau #NetGalley

Readers of WWII fiction know that many of these novels end when the armistice is declared. However, the end of the war is not only a time of victory/defeat, it is also a time when worlds and countries, along with people, need to be rebuilt. The Glass Chateau is set in France at this time of aftermath and figuring things out.

Asher is desperately in need of solace and sanctuary when he discovers le Chateau Guerin. He has lost so much in the war and his war work was as stressful as possible; It is no wonder that he is/feels damaged.

Asher and others discover the Chateau as a place of sanctuary. Readers will find out what talent Jewish Asher has and how this serves him in a Catholic setting.

Those who enjoy historical fiction and especially stories set in this time period, should give this title a look. It is written by an experienced and capable author.

Many thanks to William Morrow and NetGalley for this title. All opinions are my own.

I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses!
