Description
Farewell, My Queen: A Novel
Set against the backdrop of one of history's most pivotal moments, this novel tells the story of Madame Agathe-Sidonie Laborde, a woman who witnessed the fall of the French monarchy firsthand.
Twenty-one years after the events of 1789, Agathe-Sidonie reflects on the legendary opulence of Versailles and the shocking news that shook the royal court. As she recounts these fateful days, Chantal Thomas brings to life a world on the edge of oblivion and an intimate portrait of the woman at its center.
