Sunrise in Florence

“Sunrise in Florence is a tonic for any reader who loves Italy, fine art and adventure. When Rose, a practical art history professor, decides to paint instead of teach,her world opens up, and with it her past, the revelation of a secret, the return of her first love and the complications that arise when a woman has the courage to change her life and choose happiness.  All this and Bella Firenze too.  Brava Kathleen Reid!” - Adriana Trigiani Author of Tony’s Wife

“Bravo! The vivid descriptions of Renaissance art, artists, Italian culture and architectural sites are highlights of the novel.  Insights that Reid provides into the artistic process and use of conservation techniques are an added bonus for fans of art historical fiction.” - Lee Bagby Ceperich Director, Library and Special Collections, Virginia Museum of Fine Arts
