Manon Lescaut recenzia

Audiobook Manon Lescaut, written by Abbé Prévost. ‘The sweetness of her glance – or rather, my evil star already in its ascendant and drawing me to my ruin – did not allow me to hesitate for a moment…’ So begins the story of Manon Lescaut, a tale of passion and betrayal, of delinquency and misalliance, which moves from early 18th-century Paris – with its theatres, assemblies, and gaming-houses – via prison and deportation to a tragic denouement in the treeless wastes of Louisiana.
