Les filles du corbeau/Daughters of the Crow

NEW!

In 1562, violence spread across France as the Wars of Religion pitted Catholics against Protestants. In Tours, Huguenots took control of the city in the spring but by July, their rule came to a violent end. Engravings from the period show dogs and crows fighting over the many corpses being thrown into the Loire.

Daughters of the Crow imagines the Tours massacre from the perspective of three women: Anne the heretic, her Catholic rival Berthaude, and the mythical Melusine.

A “dos-à-dos” style book with English and French versions of this powerful, illustrated narrative poem.
