En savoir plus sur le livre
Set in seventeenth-century Amsterdam, this masterful debut immerses readers in a world of wealth and religious oppression. On a brisk autumn day in 1686, eighteen-year-old Nella Oortman arrives to marry the esteemed merchant trader Johannes Brandt. However, her new life is far from welcoming. Johannes is kind but distant, often preoccupied with his work, leaving Nella alone with his sharp-tongued sister, Marin. Everything changes when Johannes gifts Nella a stunning cabinet-sized replica of their home. To furnish this gift, she hires a mysterious miniaturist whose creations eerily reflect the lives of those in the Brandt household. As Nella delves deeper into the secrets of her new home, she uncovers unsettling truths that reveal the dangers lurking beneath their opulent facade. In a society where deviation from the norm is perilous, even Johannes's wealth cannot shield them from impending threats. The miniaturist, with her uncanny insights, may hold the key to their fate—either as a savior or a harbinger of destruction. This enchanting and suspenseful tale explores themes of love, obsession, betrayal, and the stark contrast between appearance and reality.
