Antonia by George Sand ~ Full Audiobook [romance]

Antonia by George Sand audiobook.

Genre: romance

Paris, April 1785: spring lilacs press against the studio window of Julien Thierry, a gifted young painter of flowers whose talent cannot erase a brutal inheritance of debt. Still grieving his celebrated artist father, Julien works side by side with his devoted mother, Madame Thierry, clinging to dignity as money troubles tighten and the world of taste shifts away from his family's once-fashionable art. Just beyond their modest pavilion stands the hotel d'Estrelle, where Julie, Comtesse d'Estrelle, lives in uneasy half-mourning. Barely twenty and already widowed, she discovers that the fortune she was promised is tangled in obligations, and the proud d'Estrelle family offers her little more than cold protection for their name. As solicitors bargain, friends advise, and reputation becomes currency, Julie confronts the cost of the choices forced on women of her rank, while Julien faces the perilous distance between an artist's heart and aristocratic society. When Julien and the countess are drawn into one another's orbit, Sand weaves a tense, intimate tale of love tested by class, honor, and the looming pressure of ruin, in a city glittering on the eve of upheaval.
