Читать книгу Safe in the Earl's Arms - Liz Tyner - Страница 4

AUTHOR NOTE

As a child, I remember seeing a picture of the Venus de Milo. I didn’t understand the archaeological aspect—I only wondered why she didn’t have arms. Much later, while thinking about what story to write, I happened to see something on television about her discovery and began to imagine the Venus lying, waiting to be uncovered.

While researching I discovered that part of one badly damaged arm had once been found, and also a hand believed to be holding an apple. But I found nothing definitive about her other hand except the explanation that the fragments around her might have been another arm. It might have been…but it was so easy for me to believe someone took it!

I hope you enjoy my story and uncovering the magic of this wonderful time!
