Description

The Madam by Julianna Baggott is a historical novel inspired by the life of the author’s grandmother, blending family history, hardship, reinvention, and the complicated bonds between mothers and daughters.

Set in 1920s Florida, the story follows Alma, a woman who leaves her family behind and builds a new life by opening a brothel. Though fiercely independent, she remains haunted by the children she left behind. When she learns that her daughter is trapped in an abusive marriage to a police officer, Alma is drawn back into the family she tried to escape.

Baggott explores survival, motherhood, regret, power, and the choices women make when their options are limited. A strong choice for readers who enjoy historical fiction, women’s stories, family drama, and novels based on real lives.
