📦 Shipping Notice for Print Books
To keep shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing smaller print book orders whenever practical. Orders that exceed our print partner's U.S. shipping weight limit may be fulfilled from a U.K. facility, resulting in significantly higher shipping charges. If you're purchasing several print books, placing two or more smaller orders will often reduce your shipping costs.
The Rope Maker’s Daughter — Céleste has been deciding for two weeks whether to attend the memorial service for Étienne Varrel in Marseille in 1665. Her father Guillaume taught her: look at what is actually there before deciding what you have. The deciding is not simple, which is why it has taken two weeks. The story is about what she finds when she finally does what her father taught her.
