Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring themes of friendship and societal challenges, the novel follows two orphaned American teens, Hortense and Valentine, as they transition from a Parisian boarding school to life in New Orleans. Their bond is tested by yellow fever, looming marriage prospects, and the harsh realities of racial discrimination in 19th-century Louisiana. This previously untranslated work by Camille Lebrun offers a rare female perspective on issues of slavery and race relations in a historical context. The translation includes an introduction, annotations, and period illustrations for modern readers.
