MY WISHFUL WEDNESDAY ( 11 ) 

For the last couple weeks I’ve been reading Tracy Chevalier’s novels as my Historical Fiction Reading Challenge, then I found myself ‘falling-in-love’ with all her stories. Not only through some facts or historical aspects, but she can related on the living too. Her imaginations and perspective soo deep, makes my heart moves while reading the stories, and yet after finished it, those character still ‘live’ in my mind. I’ve been reading all of four title, and now I’m craving for more of her novels, and there’s 3 title now on my wishlist, first title is :

BURNING BRIGHT by TRACY CHEAVALIER 

THE STORY Burning Bright follows the Kellaway family as they leave behind tragedy in rural Dorset and come to late 18th-century London. As they move in next door to the radical painter / poet William Blake, and take up work for a near-by circus impresario, the youngest family member gets to know a girl his age. Embodying opposite characteristics – Maggie Butterfield is a dark-haired, streetwise extrovert, Jem Kellaway a quiet blond introvert – the children form a strong bond while getting to know their unusual neighbor and his wife.

Set against the backdrop of a city nervous of the revolution gone sour across the Channel in France, Burning Bright explores the states of innocence and experience just as Blake takes on similar themes in his best-known poems, Songs of Innocence and of Experience.

This stories based on the life of William Blake, and Tracey Chevalier  choose his work ‘The Song of Innocence and of Experience’ as another project. Later she focused on the poems ‘The Song of Experience’ the experience about Adam and Eve, and being develop as the book “Burning Bright"
