Sometimes history can be a struggle to understand. It tends to be presented as a series of facts, disconnected from everything else. We may not recognize why it matters. And that's why I like historical fiction. A good book set in the past helps to personalize the past, to make it real and remind us that these dry events we learn in class happened to regular people. Here are six historical fiction novels published in the past six months.
Six new historical novels
- For Lamb by Lesa Cline-Ransome
- The Lost Year by Katherine Marsh
- Wild Bird by Diane Zahler
