The sound of butterflies / Rachael King. by King, Rachael, 1970- William Morrow, [2007], c2006. Call #: FICTION KIN Subjects Naturalists -- Fiction.   Butterflies -- Fiction.   British -- Brazil -- Fiction.   Amazon River Region -- Fiction.   Great Britain -- History -- Edward VII, 1901-1910 -- Fiction. ISBN:  9780061357640 0061357642 Edition:  1st U.S. ed. Description:  338 p. : map ; 24 cm. Notes:  Originally published: New Zealand : Random House New Zealand, 2006. Summary:  "Amateur naturalist Thomas Edgar is offered the chance of a lifetime: to travel to the Amazon as part of a scientific exploration. Hoping to discover the mythical butterfly of which he has long dreamed—his Papilio sophia—he eagerly accepts. Yet when he returns, the optimistic young Edwardian gentleman is gone, replaced by a weak, nearly mute shadow of the man. Unable to break through Thomas's silence, his beloved wife, Sophie, is forced to take drastic measures to discover what has happened. But as she gleans what she can from Thomas's diaries and boxes of exquisite butterflies, she learns as much about herself and their marriage as about the secrets he harbors. Written in rich, sensuous prose and taking the reader from the demure gentility of turn-of-the-twentieth-century England to the lush, dangerous jungles of Brazil, The Sound of Butterflies is a breathtaking and compelling debut."--Inside jacket.
