Lot description Show orginal version
Estimations: 21 EUR

Alfred de Musset, so well known with us by name and legend, and so little by his works, is one of France's most charming writers.

"Confessions of a Child of the Age," which is the flagship novel of Romanticism, allows you to look deep into the poet's soul, and concerns the famous episode around which Musset's legend is wrapped : his love for George Sand.

The young poet and the writer, famous for her scandalous lifestyle, become lovers, fascinated by each other. However, the idyll does not last long. begins a procession of separations and returns, mutual accusations and resentments. Although the disappointment they suffered was a fact, it is difficult not to see that the persons of the drama about fatal love play roles in romantic theater.

The author's confessions go far beyond privacy. They are also the voice of a generation of young men affected by the romantic disease of age.
