Remarkable Creatures

Tracy Chevalier, 2009

This historical novel features a young 19th century woman who uncovers an unusual fossilized skeleton on the cliffs near her English home. Her fossil hunting sets the religious fathers on edge, the townspeople to vicious gossip, and the scientific world alight. Remarkable Creatures is based on a true story. Themes that resonate are women's friendships, class and prejudice.
