The Lady and the Unicorn is the name of a set of six medieval tapestries. Beautiful, intricate and expertly made, they are also mysterious in their origin and meaning. Jean le Viste, a newly wealthy member of the French court, commissions the tapestries to hang in his chÂteau. Nicolas, his chosen designer, meets le Viste’s wife, Genevieve, and his daughter, Claude, both of whom take a keen interest in the tapestries. From Paris, Nicolas moves to a weaver’s workshop in Brussels. The creation of the tapestries brings together people who would not otherwise meet; their lives become entangled, and so do their desires. As they fall in love, are shunned, take revenge, find unrequited love, turn to the church or to pagan ideals, the tapestries become to each an ideal vision of life – yet all discover that they are unable to make this ideal world their own.
Tracy Chevalier lives in North London with her husband and son. The Lady and the Unicorn is her fourth novel.
有没有人注意封面?无比诡异啊~ 初看封面,没啥特别,少女和独角兽,一如外文原版的那种风格,花花绿绿的,有少女有独角兽有小兔子有小花小草……恨不得把所有的事物都塞到封面里去。说到此,到底是有文化差异啊~ 可是,这张不同,细细一看,会吓你一跳。 ...

评分作者由6幅织锦编制出来的故事还算比较可看,读来很有视觉享受。那谁那谁就跟匹种马似的。 去年夏天时睡前床头上看的这本书,现在看到这书皮就有种热热的感觉。 ……………………………………………………………………………………

"historical fiction" 蛮喜欢这位作家的
评分我对结局极其的不满意,太憋屈。打一开头就期待的男主和克劳迪滚床单的段落最终也没有等到。反而看到讨厌的Beatrice最后被点给了他。

评分Tracy is one of my favourite writers. Stories in her novels are all with mediaeval backgrounds, and are very knowledgable as they have introduced us many things about art, painting, tapestry etc.
