Review

I loved SOPHIE AND THE RISING SUN. Augusta Trobaugh has written a timeless novel of love and understanding that goes straight to the heart (Richard Paul Evans, author of THE CHOCOLATE BOX)

Augusta Trobaugh is a new voice... Complex and resonant. (Anne Rivers Siddons)

An elegantly-written tale of forbidden love... well defined and consistent characterisation. (IRISH EXAMINER)

The language and imagery are rich and atmospheric. You can hear the distant cries of gulls, the whisper of the wind... Sophie's dream is one of the most exquisite pieces of writing I have read. Whatever your usual preference, do read this book. It is timel (HISTORICAL NOVELS REVIEW)
