Description
The Lily in the Valley by Honoré De Balzac
A new translation of one of Balzac's finest novels, this tale of misguided passion centers on Félix de Vandenesse, a young aristocrat who becomes embroiled in a complex and ultimately doomed relationship with an older countess.
As Félix navigates his feelings for the woman he desires, he must also contend with the societal expectations placed upon him. A story of impossible and unsatisfied desire, The Lily in the Valley is a psychological exploration of love, duty, and the human condition.
