This book was Selected bv The Book Club as one of the outstanding novels of 1971. Its English author, Norah Lofts, who lives with her husband in an ancient house in Edmunds, England, loves history. She is a very pop ular writer of historic fic tion with over 30 books al ready published. Her best known books are biographical fiction. The heroine of this novel, another biographical-type book, is Kortense de Beau harnais, daughter of Jose phine, the beautiful and fa mous widow from Martinique who married Napoleon Bona parte, the Corsican. This story begins just a little before this marriage when Kortense was thirteen years old. It contains flash backs tc the difficult days of The French Fevolution in which Hortense's father had died on the guillotine in 1794. It describes Hortense's life at a select boarding school where she had been honored by being awarded a rose for virtue. It carries her into the center of French govern mental circles after her mot her's marriage. Her life be comes dominated by Na poleon, his wishes, his suc cesses and his failures. Horter.se seems to be de voted to her stepfather and does what he asks her to do. Napoleon was so desperate for a son to carry on his empire. Josephine was un able to fill this wish. Kor tense goes along with an un happy marriage to Napoleon's brother Louis as she was ask ed to do when Napoleon told her he hoped "her" son with "his" name would become his heir. She has a love affair with one of Napoleon's officers, named Charles. Napoleon put Louis and Kor tense on the thrones of Hol land. She was an unhappy queen. She lived through many dramatic, romantic, and very tragic experiences as a young wife and mother. The book closes soon after Napoleon's defeat at Water loo and his exile to St. Hel ena. As she contemplates her life to that point, Kortense tries to think of the future without Napoleon. She knows she must face it. "Swallow the brew. When you thought of men dead on battlefields far away, which came first? Not your lover, not your brot her. In the same heartbeat, perhaps, but not first. First was always the man whose given name, even in your thoughts, you dared not use. My stepfather: Bonaparte: the Emperor. Never once Napoleon. You did not dare. Look upon the forbidden thing; speak the forbidden name and be struck dead!" Her son Charles Louis Na poleon Bonaparte became em- rxirer Napoleon III. NOTICE!
