One step into the chamber, and what did I see? Eyes, eyes, everywhere. Eyes of blond German bodyguards in front of pilasters. Painted eyes of Odysseus and his exploits spilling across the walls. And of course the eyes of two women glancing up from their couches to me. #amwriting

@bowling_donna @goodreads I prefer her new one about Lucretia Medici. She tends to spoil the plot in the beginning of her books... but then again, it's history so
