Excerpt from Le Tentateur: Roman
La braise du Vésuve luisait, mate et silencieuse, dans la nuit. Au-dessus de la mer, l'azur chargé d'étoiles pendait. Les lueurs de Naples, sous l'obscurité transparente, s'avivaient, frémissaient comme a un souffle. Il arriva soudain que tout le monde se tut on n'entendit plus que le bruit léger et continu de la fontaine qui, au bas de l'escalier, s'épan chait entre les hautes roses.
