Ep. 226: Aimie K. Runyan on the Overlooked Mademoiselle Eiffel

Aimie K. Runyan is back on the podcast this week to discuss Mademoiselle Eiffel, which tells the little-known story of Claire Eiffel, and her significant, though overlooked, contributions to the city of Paris.

Claire was Gustave Eiffel’s daughter, illustrious architect of many global landmarks, including  the Eiffel Tower. Mademoiselle Eiffel contains sweeping themes of love, devotion, and family legacy, and is sprinkled with impeccably researched tidbits of French culture and historical events and figures. It is an absolute delight for historical fiction readers!

“For anyone who has ever admired the Eiffel Tower, this fascinating tale of a woman ahead of her time will leave a mark on your heart, in much the same way that Claire Eiffel left her mark on the world.” – Kristin Harmel, New York Times bestselling author of The Paris Daughter
