How mysterious and rebellious even the most sincere human hearts are! It should be added - loving hearts. Can a woman who has known her first and - alas! - the last love not in her youth, but during the “autumn of a woman”, to abandon this feeling that overshadowed the rest of her world? Yes, says Marcel Prevost, a woman is capable of such an unthinkable sacrifice for the sake of a loved one. But there is another type of woman for whom love, hatred or joy is just an acting game, and the whole life seems to them just an opportunity to play a chosen role.

The collection includes novels: Marcel Prevost - Autumn of a Woman Paul Bourget - The Blue Duchess
