Salley Vickers

Arriving from nowhere, belonging to noone, the taciturn, recessive protagonist of Sally Vickers’ The Cleaner of Chartres, Agnes Morel, soon becomes as steady and as enduring a presence as the cathedral itself, touching the lives of everyone with whom she comes into contact. The story of her troubled past—and what that past brings to light—is at the heart of Vickers’ intelligent new novel, which, never ponderous, explores the seedier side of human nature with the lightest touch.
