Description

Published in 1787, Paul and Virginia tells the poignant story of two childhood friends who discover a deep love for one another amidst the idyllic setting of Mauritius, then known as Île de France. However, their romance takes a tragic turn when the ship Le Saint-Geran meets with disaster. Written just before the French Revolution, this novel is considered Bernardins masterpiece, revealing the harsh realities faced by those who are innocent and pure in a world dominated by the superficial sentiments of the upper classes in France.
