About this listen

From the best-selling author of It Happened at the Fair and Fair Play comes a compelling historical novel about a progressive "New Woman" - the girl behind Tiffany's chapel - and the love that threatens it all.

As preparations for the 1893 World's Fair set Chicago and the nation on fire, Louis Tiffany - heir to the exclusive Fifth Avenue jewelry empire - seizes the opportunity to unveil his state-of-the-art, stained glass, mosaic chapel, the likes of which the world has never seen. But when Louis' dream is threatened by a glassworkers' strike months before the fair opens, he turns to an unforeseen source for help: the female students at the Art Students League of New York.

Eager for adventure the young women pick up their skirts, move to boarding houses, take up steel cutters, and assume new identities as the Tiffany Girls. Tiffany Girls is the heartwarming story of the impetuous Flossie Jayne, a beautiful budding artist who is handpicked by Louis to help complete the Tiffany chapel. Though excited to live in a boarding house when most women stayed home, she quickly finds the world is less welcoming than anticipated. From a Casanova male to an unconventional married couple and a condescending singing master, she takes on a colorful cast of characters to transform the boarding house into a home while racing to complete the Tiffany chapel and make a name for herself in the art world. As challenges mount, her ambitions become threatened from an unexpected quarter: her own heart. Who will claim victory? Her dreams or the captivating boarder next door?

Another Deeanne Gist hit

If you could sum up Tiffany Girl in three words, what would they be?

Interesting, well written

What other book might you compare Tiffany Girl to and why?

Like other Deeanne Gist books, this one is built on the history of our country. This one was an interesting time historically as women were just beginning to speak up for their rights. Ms. Gist does a great job of developing her characters so that you understand and can envision them.

Which character – as performed by Rachel Botchan – was your favorite?

She did a great job on all of them, so it's impossible to pick a favorite. I was easily able to distinguish the characters from one another and she has a very pleasant voice when speaking out of character.

Any additional comments?

Whenever I finish one of Ms. Gist books, I find myself looking forward to the next one. And it can never get her quickly enough!

Loved the history

The history in Tiffany Girl was outstanding. The romance was okay. The first two thirds of the book flew by, but the last third seemed to drag. Maybe it was because I was listening to the book instead of reading it.

Excellent Characters

This was such a sweet story. I originally started it just so I had some white noise when I worked but found myself engaged. The main characters were really developed. Okay yes it was a little sappy and I could have done without the way it end was written. I would have liked an epilogue. Good clean story.

Good but...

This is my least favorite of all of Dee's books. It was too long (86 chapters!) and I didn't like Flossy. I don't know why Reeve falls in love with her. I guess the main point was to expose us to the history of the time but I found it a little boring. The narrator was great though.

A step back in time.

Flossie and Reeve. I really wasn't sure I liked these two at the beginning of the book. But I took my time with this one. It was thoroughly enjoyable. Slowly the story unravels and you find yourself immersed in the history of New York, The Tiffany Company, and a boarding house full of interesting characters. The romance was so sweet and almost unexpected.
The women's movement wasn't in full swing yet and I'm very happy it didn't overwhelm the story. Flossie's need for freedom mirrored my own when I was her age.
I felt as if I stepped through time. I will put this book on my keeper shelf so I can pay them a visit again.
The narrator did a fine job.

Great historical story

I was very impressed. Not my normal genre but will look for more from this author. The descriptions drew the images to my minds eye. Thank you DG and RB. A story worth spending time in the past.

oozing with first time love

I thought it would be more about Tiffany's and the world's fair. If you like romance novels without explicit sex scenes this is for you. I stick with it and made it to the end. just a bit too sappy and long for my taste.
