"Merchants of Milan was a beautifully woven story. This may be the first novel I’ve read by Edale Lane, but consider me hooked. Her writing is flawless, as is her inclusion of several different and complex themes. I know I say this a lot, but Merchants of Milan was such a quick ”" yet delightful ”" read.
