January 1 2007: Review: Falling Angels - Tracy Chevalier Categories: Reviews Girl With A Pearl Earring Girl With A Pearl Earring , a novel enmeshed in history with no real modern parellels in its themes, I was pleasantly surprised to find a novel like Falling Angels , which effortlessly blended contemporary issues in its plot. Telling the stories of two very different families in England, joined only by the friendship of their two young daughters, this novel spans the period between January 1901, commencing with the death of Queen Victoria, till May 1910, in the midst of the suffragette movement. With adjourning cemetary plots, one decorated with a gigantic urn, the other with a sentimental angel, the adults in both families dislike the decorations of the others. They are joined together only by the friendship of their two daughters, allied with each other and vowed true friendship on first sight. With two very different personalities, the two girls seem to have been born to the wrong mother, or switched at birth. With Maude, the quiet one born to Kitty, the adulterer and suffragette leader, and the loud, theatrical and manipulative Lavinia born to Gertrude who simply wants to be a good housewife, nothing seems to be quite right in each household. Kitty is subjected to sex with random people on the twisted instigation of her husband, who is desperate to entice Kitty back into his own arms, whereas Gertrude suffers from the fact that her husband quite often is caught with his eye on other women. Kitty eventually breaks away from the enforced sex of course, when she finds her own lover, the caretaker and manager of the cemetery.
