My rating: 4 of 5 stars
In Liza Klaussmann’s skilled and sensitive new novel, “Villa America,” the Murphy’s’ famous sociability becomes intriguingly fraught, the expression of a loving, complicated marriage. Once they settle in Cap d’Antibes with their three young children in 1923, Klaussmann paints an attractive picture of their elegantly Bohemian existence.
VILLA AMERICA swept me up into the beautifully drawn lives of the Murphy’s and their dazzling circles of friends and family. This novel moves at a fast pace that keeps the readers interested. The novel has many truly lovely moments. An enthralling read from the first page to the last.
