JCC MetroWest presents, Allegra Goodman, Isola

Heir to a fortune, Marguerite is destined for a life of prosperity and gentility. Then she is orphaned, and her guardian, accusing her of betrayal, brutally punishes and abandons her on a small island. Once a child of privilege, Marguerite finds herself at the mercy of nature. As the weather turns, blanketing the island in ice, she discovers a faith she’d never needed, inspired by the real life of a sixteenth-century heroine.
