Julia Rice asked Tracy Chevalier:

?Not a question, just a comment: just read The Lady and the Unicorn and loved it. Of all your books I have only read Girl with a Pearl Earring previously (loved that too), but now feel I want to read more of your work. By sheer coincidence, caught you on Radio 4 yesterday, so it feels like a sign! Thank you.

Tracy Chevalier Julia, so sorry not to reply till now. I'm glad you liked both books. What will you read next??

Very best,
Tracy
