One of Dumas' earlier books. It is short, contemporary and written in a very complex structure: Dumas is the narrator who meets a friend, Alfred de Nerval, who tells him the story of his great love recently dead, and within this narrative we have another first-person narrative, when Pauline tells her story to Alfred. The plot has a few Gothic elements: a ruined abbey and a very Byronesque villain, Pauline's husband. The heroine is a bit too meek for my taste, but otherwise an entertaining read.
