Book
Mass Market Paperback. Condition: NEAR FINE. (1st thus). As new but with faintest markings on front cover edge from having been tied in a bundle. "The story is a touching one about a very wealthy artist, a railroad tycoon s son, who falls in love and marries a simple, semi-illiterate, farmer s daughter after he paints her portrait. Beginning at the start of the last century and ending nearing the beginning of World War II in Europe in 1939. the book is dated -illustrations and references- but has the additional attribute of looking back on marriage in a different time and place and defines the spiritual, emotional, physical, religious and legal contract that marriage often is; in a way few would embrace or understand today." Text in French.
