In questo quarto volume della tetralogia della Storia contemporanea, il signor Bergeret, promosso docente alla Sorbona, si trasferisce a Parigi con la sorella e la figlia Paolina.

In questo terzo libro della Storia contemporanea, il signor Bergeret si riconcilia finalmente con la vita.

In questo secondo volume della tetralogia della Storia contemporanea, che segue “L’olmo del Mail”, troviamo il signor Bergeret impegnato in discussioni politiche sulla corruzione dei funzionari della Repubblica e su questioni di morale cristiana e non, mentre, nella sua vita domestica (di cui il manichino di vimini è ingrato simbolo), egli acquisisce “l’inestimabile vantaggio di essere tradito”.Cornice musicale: A real slow rag, di Scott Joplin.

In this series we explore the many facets of love through literary talents that span both time and country. Love is good. It’s positive, a source of joy, nourishment and all over goodness. But sometimes other more malevolent forces come to play. They infect that love, they see their form as better. Instinctively we would shy away but sometimes its pull is too powerful, almost attractive. We are drawn closer into the shadows.

Love has many forms, many needs. Some fall into the dark, into the shadows. Forbidden love has connotations of desire, of possession but also of matters far more unsavoury. It’s a delicate facet of love that our classic authors explain with careful words and superbly crafted narratives.

Pero, ¿puede el amor vencer al miedo? ¿Puede la verdad oculta ser más deslumbrante que la leyenda más negra? En esta retorcida y cautivadora versión, France desentraña el corazón humano, confrontando nuestros deseos más profundos y nuestros temores más oscuros.

In this volume they take us on literary journeys that are revealing and challenging yet always entertaining.

The problem with the dark is you don’t really know what’s lurking in there. Something hiding? Something menacing? Or just an inky dome for the stars to twinkle on? Writers rarely let us dwell on the latter. No, they would much rather they put our nerves on edge, that our skin would begin to crawl and that the cold sweat of fear propels our pulse and heartbeat to nightmare-inducing trauma. I think they’re ready.

This work vividly examines the lives of artists, nobles, commoners, and members of the Revolutionary Tribunal during the Reign of Terror in Paris. It is through our protagonist that we see how increasing power corrupts ever increasingly. And casting her dark shadow over all is Madame Guillotine.
