Reviews

One of the greatest love stories of the world. --Henry James<br><br> Anyone who has read an outdated English translation of this novel; seen the opera it inspired-- La Traviata, by Verdi; or watched the film it inspired-- Camille, starring Greta Garbo, might have missed the audacity, obstinacy, sensuality, and recklessness of its characters. . . . Marguerite and Armand are the kind of bright, self-destructive young things we still read about in magazines, watch onscreen, or brush up against today. --Liesl Schillinger, from the Note on the Translation<br><br> <br>


One of the greatest love stories of the world -- Henry James
