A disciplined student attending the school of the Paris Opera Ballet, Paloma lets little get in the way of her career until she receives a mysterious pair of golden earrings. She begins exploring her Spanish heritage and becomes fascinated by la Rusa, a woman who rose from poverty to become one of the great flamenco dancers of modern times before committing suicide. As Paloma begins to unravel the secrets of the past, she discovers more than one person who had good reason for wanting la Rusa dead--including Paloma's own grandmother. Golden Earrings moves between two of the great cities of Europe: Barcelona in the lead-up to the Civil War and Paris in the 1970s. It is the story of two women and the extremes to which they are willing to go for love. And above all, it is a story of great passions--and great betrayals--where nothing is quite as it seems. 650 0 $a Young women $z Paris $z Paris $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Spaniards $z Paris $z Paris $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Family secrets $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Barcelona (Spain) $x History $y 20th century $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Love stories. $2 gsafd 941 $a 4 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909035032.0 952 $l W7PA017 $d 20191031023135.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20190814042719.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20181006090426.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1DE4505E47CB11E598A1CBA4DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b UIBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
