"With tracks every 3 minutes for easy book marking"--Container.
Narrated by Paul Hecht.
Lisbeth Fischer feels she's been wronged--though much of what she perceives may only reside in her imagination. Seeking vengeance against the family of her beautiful cousin, Adeline, she leverages the uncontrollable sexual appetites of her cousin's husband as the linchpin of her plans.
REVIEWS & SUMMARIES
Summary / AnnotationCOMMUNITY REVIEWS
Scandalous submitted by Kimberlyrol on July 25, 2015, 5:00pm Set in mid 19th century Paris, this is Balzac's tale of the vengeance that a cousin takes on her family by helping them realize their obsessions. Balzac's commentary about Parisian life and its network of mistresses and the price they exact from the men who keep them is richly detailed and engaging.
