Reviews
Beautiful reading!
m. p.
The reader is wonderful! The way he read the female characters was outstanding. As for the novel, it was never boring, not for a single moment, and does paint the picture of the morals and failings of the nobility versus the honesty and yearning of a man who falls prey to his passion. This time around he learned his lesson.

The book has a lengthy setting which is an inane society, followed by a narrative that's fairly self-contained. If tired of the setting, jump ahead to the narrative beginning with Chapter 7.
