On this Valentine’s Day, we certainly have not forgotten our loyal Wonders & Marvels readers! We are offering a bon-bon of a giveaway with Robin Maxwell’s lushly romantic O, Juliet. Known for her “electrifying prose…[and] enthralling historical fiction,” the author has taken the most iconic pair in literature, glorified by no less than William Shakespeare and, setting their story on the cusp of the Italian Renaissance, made them her own.
Yes, you guessed correctly! We are talking about none other than Romeo and Juliet. Bedchambers, balconies, breathless intrigue – it’s all there in the stuff of beloved legend.
We at Wonders & Marvels have five copies of O, Juliet for our special giveaway. For a chance to win, simply comment by midnight EST on February 19, 2010 in response to this question:
How would you re-write a famous story in history? Good luck!
(Sorry, at this time we can only ship books to U.S. winners.)
