The threads of a new life
     begin with a single stitch . . . .

New novel The Lace Makers of Glenmara will be published June 23, 2009 (Harper)

“The Lace Makers of Glenmara is a charming, moving story, written with a delicate touch.”
—Joanne Harris

“The Lace Makers of Glenmara is richly peopled and beguilingly charming, but what ultimately makes it so moving is Heather Barbieri's deep understanding that no life is immune from sorrow and difficulty. I read this wonderful novel with enormous pleasure.”
—Margot Livesey
