Young sculptor Johann Kändler is summoned to the royal court, where King Augustus the Strong demands a lifelike porcelain menagerie. One mistake could ruin him—or cost his life. Decades earlier, Fatima, a Turkish handmaiden turned royal mistress, must navigate court intrigues, reclaim her identity, and survive a world where beauty and obedience are prized above all else. Two lives. One king. A deadly obsession. Narrated by Caroline Hewitt, this immersive audiobook brings the glittering yet perilous world of Dresden to life, capturing every whisper, rivalry, and delicate porcelain masterpiece. Perfect for fans of Sarah Penner and Emelia Hart, The Porcelain Menagerie is historical fiction at its most vivid, intricate, and unforgettable.
