Description
A historical fiction short story by C. J. Thrush, author of the un-published novel, Lady Blade.
In Tuscany during the 1700’s a girl had to know her place or there were consequences.
Try telling that to Francesca DiCesare, the eleven-year-old daughter of Maestro DiCesare, Europe’s most renowned fencing master. Francesca has more courage than common sense, and learns her lesson - just not the one they were trying to teach her.
Set amid the blushing poppies in the Tuscan countryside, this is the first in a series of coming of age stories.
Francesca DiCesare is the title character in the as-yet-unpublished novel LADY BLADE which begins when Francesca is eighteen. Lady Blade was a finalist in the San Francisco Writer’s Conference Contest and is currently in the quarterfinal round of the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Competition. Watch for more stories coming soon about her and her family.
