Description

“The Glass-Blowers” is a historical novel written by Daphne du Maurier, published in 1963. Set during the time of the French Revolution, the story follows the lives of the Busson family, a family of glassblowers living in the city of Rouen, France.

The novel provides a rich and detailed portrayal of the Busson family as they navigate the tumultuous events of the French Revolution. Through the perspectives of various family members, including Sophie Busson, the matriarch, and her children and grandchildren, du Maurier offers a vivid depiction of the impact of historical events on ordinary people’s lives.

As the Revolution unfolds, the Busson family finds themselves torn apart by political divisions and personal conflicts. Some family members support the revolutionary cause, while others are loyal to the monarchy, leading to tensions within the family.

“The Glass-Blowers” is praised for its immersive storytelling, rich historical detail, and compelling characters. Du Maurier skillfully weaves together elements of history, romance, and family drama, creating a captivating narrative that explores themes of loyalty, resilience, and the power of familial bonds.

While perhaps not as well-known as some of her other works, such as “Rebecca” or “My Cousin Rachel,” “The Glass-Blowers” remains a beloved novel among fans of historical fiction and Daphne du Maurier’s writing.
