A sad tale.
Well, if it weren't so true, about so many families, it would be fiction, but it is fact. Not a happy read, but so informative about French culture in the early 1800's and the emotions and the recounting of feelings, integrity, lack thereof, etc. and parricide is as much true today. I recommend the book.
