With few options for work, Marie is dispatched to the Paris Opera, where for a scant wadge she is trained to enter the famous ballet. Her older sister, Antoinette, finds work-and the love of a dangerous young man-as an extra in a stage adaption of Emile Zola’s masterpiece L’Assommoir. Marie is soon modeling in a studio of Edgar Degas, who will immortalize her image forever. Antoinette, meanwhile, must make the choice between a life of honest labor and the more profitable avenues open to a willing young woman-that is, unless her perilous love derails pletely. A gripping novel inspired by the real-life model doe Degas’s Little Dancer Aged Fourteen, The Painted Girls is a tale of two remarkable sisters rendered uniquely vulnerable to the darker impulses of civilized society.
