About this product

Product Information

Fate has not been kind to Gemma Hardy. Orphaned by the age of ten, neglected by a bitter and cruel aunt, sent to a boarding school where she was both servant and student, young Gemma seemed destined for a life of hardship and loneliness. Yet her bright spirit burns strong. Fiercely intelligent, singularly determined, Gemma overcomes each challenge and setback, growing stronger and more certain of her path. Now an independent young woman with dreams of the future, she accepts a position as an au pair on the remote and beautiful Orkney Islands. But Gemma's biggest trial is about to begin…a journey of passion and betrayal, secrets and lies, redemption and discovery will lead her to a life she's never dreamed.

The portrait of a delicate, iron-willed girl,an orphan and a heroine in the grand tradition...Here as in all of Livesey'snovels, the real treasure is her gift for exploring the unreduced human psychewith all its radiant contradictions, mercurial insights, and desperategenerosities., A brilliantly paced contemporary adventureabout a headstrong orphan's struggle to claim a place for her generous heart ina secret-laden, sometimes loveless world., Marvelous...Gemma Hardy is one of those pageturners in which you occasionally have to wrest yourself away from the plot toadmire the language., In this modern day retelling of Jane Eyre --trade horses for private jets--novelistMargot Livesey pays homage to Brontë's literary classic., Absorbing...Ms. Livesey writes lovely,understated prose...[Her] treks through the novel's pleasing naturallandscapes...are almost as engaging as her navigation of Gemma's restless psyche., Livesey delivers a suspenseful, curl-up-by-the-fireromance with a willfully determined protagonist who's worthy of her literaryrole model., Livesey has pulled off the near-impossible taskthat the homage begs an author to do: create an original, fresh work thatshines in its own light, while bringing an established, esteemed work to theattention of new readers, and showing off previously unseen facets to its fans., Livesey follows Brontë's form, but soconvincingly does she create her own character's life and surroundings that theoriginal soon recedes, its story a beloved, familiar body dressed in anentirely new and vibrant wardrobe., Jane Eyre gets a terrific modern makeover...Livesey works some sort of magic in The Flight of Gemma Hardy , which is tooentertaining to be superfluous, too wise in its understanding of human natureto be a mere retread., Inspired by JaneEyre , Livesey offers vibrant prose and a feisty heroine...Captivating andmoving, this book is a wonderful addition to Livesey's body of work.
