The Titanic Survivors Book Club
Schaffert (The Perfume Thief) tinkers somewhat with the historical record (according to the Titanic Historical Society, the ship wasn’t racially segregated) in a novel offering lessons about love and literature that transcend time.

The Perfume Thief
Recommended for those with a literary bent, a love of Paris, and an interest in perfumery or World War II.
PREMIUM
The Perfume Thief
While the concept, the characters, and the well-researched details of the setting are intriguing, the plot drags, resulting in an underwhelming read.
PREMIUM
The Swan Gondola
With allusions to the Emerald City in The Wizard of Oz, Schaffert has magically transformed a stretch of field near Omaha into a white, shimmering vision of rotundas, columns, and pillars. His magical tale is steeped in late 19th-century history. The stately pace might be too slow for some readers, but fans of historical fiction will not be disappointed. [See Prepub Alert, 8/12/13.]
