La Princesse de Clèves is a French book which was published anonymously in March 1678. It is regarded by many as the beginning of the modern tradition of the psychological novel, and as a great classic work. Its author is generally held to be Madame de La Fayette.
The action takes place between October 1558 and November 1559 at the royal court of Henry II of France. The work recreates that era with remarkable precision. Nearly every character – except the heroine – is a historical figure. Events and intrigues unfold with great faithfulness to documentary record.
This edition has been formatted for your NOOK, with an active table of contents. This work has also been annotated, with additional information about the book and its author, including an overview, plot summary, characters, contemporary reception, references in popular culture, and biographical information.
