About this audiobook
Violets Behind Glass is a lush historical novel that follows Nora Whitcomb, a determined young publicity agent, and Arabella “Belle” Huntington, a formidable Gilded Age widow whose life straddles wealth, desire, and reinvention. Set amid opulent greenhouses, gaming parlors, and grand estates from post‑Civil War Richmond to turn‑of‑the‑century New York, the story weaves ambition, social maneuvering, and quiet intimacies into a portrait of two women navigating power, reputation, and longing. Elena Voss evokes period detail with vivid prose and a keen eye for the era’s contradictions—luxury shadowed by vulnerability, charity shadowed by scandal. Readers who enjoy character‑driven historical fiction—rich atmosphere, complex female leads, and simmering emotional stakes—will find this novel both immersive and emotionally resonant. Violets Behind Glass explores how choices made in the public eye ripple through private lives, and how small acts—a pot of flowers, a discreet favor—can alter destiny.
