Books by Jody Shields

From the author of the 140,000-copy paperback bestseller The Fig Eater -- a spellbinding new work of historical fiction that's "exquisitely written . . . without a false line" (Washington Post).

'He watches her eating one fig, then two more, grinding the seeds between her teeth, the sound echoing in her head, perhaps the last sound Dora heard before there was the thunder of blood in her ears...' Vienna, 1910.
