Synopsis
Iceland, 1686. The brutal, lava-scarred landscape can swallow a man without so much as a volcanic gasp.
Jón Eiríksson has just married his second wife in a year. But Rósa's new home in the windswept village of Stykkishólmur is terrifyingly isolated - the villagers are suspicious of strangers and fearful of something which they will not name.
What is Rósa's new husband secret, and why does the spectre of his first wife Anna haunt them so?
Set against the backdrop of the seventeenth-century Icelandic witch trials, in a land governed by religion and fear, THE GLASS WOMAN is addictive, breathtaking, and perfect for readers of BURIAL RITES and THE ESSEX SERPENT.

Une bonne lecture, je comfirme la référence a Jane Eyre de la couverture. J'ai beaucoup aimé l'univers et l'ambiance du livre ainsi que d'avoir différents points de vue de Rosa et Jòn enfin surtout son passé,j'ai regretté ne pas en savoir plus sur Jòn. Une bonne lecture même si j'ai trouvé la fin un peu bâclé.
