Items related to The Threads of the Heart
They say Frasquita knows magic. She does indeed possess a remarkable gift, one passed down to the women in her family for generations. From rags, off-cuts and rough fabric she can create gowns and other garments so magnificent, so alive, that they are capable of masking any defect or deformity (and pregnancies!). They bestow a breathtaking and blinding beauty on whoever wears them. But her gift makes others in her Andalusian village jealous - she is banished from her home. What follows is an extraordinary adventure as she travels across Spain all the way to Africa.

Review:
"If Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Carson MacCullers had had a child together, and if that child had inherited the poetic lyricism of the former and the fine sensibilities of the latter, she would resemble Carole Martinez."
--Buzz Litteraire
"Carole Martinez interrogates unflinchingly the mystery of human relations, and the games of power between men and women... she refuses to be trapped in "realism,."..she prefers the poetry and the imaginary."
--Evelyne De Martinis, " Le Nouvel Observateur "2011
