Elizabeth Hickey is the author of The Painted Kiss. She earned an MFA from Columbia University and lives in Portland, Oregon, with her husband and son.
"In The Wayward Muse, Elizabeth Hickey conjures up the fascinating
love story behind an artist's vision and brings it to life with
richly imagined characters and historical detail. It is an
enchanting novel."
-- Tova Mirvis, author of The Ladies Auxiliary and The Outside
World
"I will never again encounter a William Morris design or read a
poem by Dante Gabriel Rossetti in quite the same way. Elizabeth
Hickey's rendering of the Pre-Raphaelite movement in English poetry
and art is evocative and enchanting. Jane Burden is a heroine
worthy of the Brontë sisters."
-- Brenda Rickman Vantrease, author of The Illuminator and The
Mercy Seller
"The Wayward Muse grants us and its protagonist, the plainest Jane
from an Oxford slum, a shared dream: to be transported out of
ourselves. With sumptuous and persuasive detail, the novel unveils
for us the intoxications and burdens of always being someone's
muse."
-- Jim Shepard, author of Project X and Love and Hydrogen
