- Synopsis
- The life of Lucy Bakewell Audubon, wife of the painter John James Audubon, comes to life through a series of poems, letters, and journal entries. The story begins when Lucy meets Audubon, the debonair French painter and dancing-master, and follows her until the publication of Audubon's iconic Birds of America. In their gentle simplicity, the poems portray Lucy as a devoted wife, a talented teacher, and a resilient woman who managed to survive the stresses of marriage to a brilliant but impractical husband.
