Paul and Virginia from the French of J.B.H. de Saint Pierre
Publisher Description
The novel's title characters are very good friends since birth who fall in love. The story is set in the island of Mauritius under French rule. Written on the eve of the French Revolution, it records the fate of a child of nature corrupted by the false, artificial sentimentality that prevailed at the time among the upper classes of France.
