Translated by Louise Varese. The Green Huntsman is a fascinating historical portrait of France in the early ninetheenth century reign of King Louis-Philippe. After the cataclysm of the Revolution and the glorious but shattered illusions of Napoleonic grandeur, France was atrophying under an induced conservatism while deeply rooted conflicts stirred below the surface of society. The Telegraph takes up the career in Paris of Lucien Leuwen, a fashionable young cavalary officer of "republican" leanings but aristocratic tastes. Through Lucien's eyes, Stendhal uncovers the moral decay of a society in which a failing government keeps itself in power by force and trickery, (taken from rear covers).
