From the author of Nureyev, the definitive biography of the celebrated Russian dancer, now comes the astonishing and unknown story of Marie Duplessis, the courtesan who inspired Alexandre Dumas fils’s novel and play La dame aux camélias, Giuseppe Verdi’s opera La Traviata, George Cukor’s film Camille, and Frederick Ashton’s ballet Marguerite and Armand. Sarah Bernhardt, Eleonora Duse, Greta Garbo, Isabelle Huppert, Maria Callas, Anna Netrebko, and Margot Fonteyn are just a few of the celebrated actors, singers, and dancers who have portrayed her. Drawing on new research, Julie Kavanagh brilliantly re-creates the short, intense, and passionate life of the tall, pale, slender girl who at thirteen fled her brute of a father and Normandy to go to Paris, where she would become one of the grand courtesans of the 1840s. France’s national treasure, Alexandre Dumas père, was intrigued by her, his son became her lover, and Franz Liszt, too, fell under her spell. Quick to adapt an aristocratic mien, with elegant clothes, a coach, and a grand apartment, she entertained a salon of dandies, writers, and artists. Fascinating to both men and women, Marie, with her stylish outfits and signature camellias, was always a subject of great interest at the opera or at the Café de Paris, where she sat at the table of the director of the Paris Opéra, along with the director of the Théâtre Variétés, the infamous dancer Lola Montez, and others. Her early death at age twenty-three from tuberculosis created an outpouring of sympathy, noted by Charles Dickens, who wrote in February 1847: “For several days all questions political, artistic, commercial have been abandoned by the papers. Everything is erased in the face of an incident which is far more important, the romantic death of one of the glories of the demi-monde, the beautiful, the famous Marie Duplessis.” With The Girl Who Loved Camellias, Kavanagh has written a compelling and poignant life of a nineteenth-century muse whose independent and modern spirit has timeless appeal.

CHRYSIS Couchée sur la poitrine, les coudes en avant, les jambes écartées et la joue dans la main, elle piquait de petits trous symétriques dans un oreiller de lin vert, avec une longue épingle d'or. Depuis qu'elle s'était éveillée, deux heures après le milieu du jour, et toute lasse d'avoir trop dormi, elle était restée seule sur le lit en désordre, couverte seulement d'un côté par un vaste flot de cheveux. Cette chevelure était éclatante et profonde, douce comme une fourrure, plus longue qu'une aile, souple, innombrable, animée, pleine de chaleur. Elle couvrait la moitié du dos, s'étendait sous le ventre nu, brillait encore auprès des genoux, en boucle épaisse et arrondie. La jeune femme était enroulée dans cette toison précieuse, dont les reflets mordorés étaient presque métalliques et l'avaient fait nommer Chrysis par les courtisanes d'Alexandrie. Ce n'étaient pas les cheveux lisses des Syriaques de la cour, ni les cheveux teints des Asiatiques, ni les cheveux bruns et noirs des filles d'Égypte. C'étaient ceux d'une race aryenne, des Galiléennes d'au delà des sables. Chrysis. Elle aimait ce nom-là. Les jeunes gens qui venaient la voir l'appelaient Chrysé comme Aphrodite, dans les vers qu'ils mettaient à sa porte, avec des guirlandes de roses, le matin. Elle ne croyait pas à Aphrodite, mais elle aimait qu'on lui comparât la déesse, et elle allait quelquefois au temple, pour lui donner, comme à une amie, des boîtes de parfums et des voiles bleus.

Nana, XIX. yüzyılın büyük Fransız romancısı Émile Zola’nın, bir ailenin tarihini anlatan yirmi romanlık dizisinin en ünlü eserlerinden biridir. Dizinin bütünü içinde bağımsız bir roman olarak da okunan Nana, bir fahişenin yaşamını konu alır. Edebiyatta doğalcılığın babası sayılan Zola’nın, sanayi toplumunun yoğun hareketliliğini ve yarattığı yabancılaşmayı şiirsel bir dille sergilediği yapıtlarının başında gelen Nana’da, bir tiyatro oyuncusunun yükselişi ve sonra fahişeliğie kadar düşüşü anlatılır. 1880 yılındaki ilk baskısı ilk gün tükenen bu dev roman, Fransa’da olay olmuş, ülkenin en şiddetli edebiyat tartışmalarından birine yol açmıştı. Bugüne kadar hem beyazperdeye, hem de sahneye pek çok kez uyarlanan Nana’yı en yetenekli oyuncuların bile romandaki kadar etkileyici kılamadıkları söylenmiştir; çünkü Nana, gerçek ve efsane, fahişe ve canavar, kadın ve tanrıça nitelikleriyle benzersiz bir roman başkişisidir. bundan kurtulma isteği var... Hayvana geri dönülüyor. Böylesi, insanca yaşamaktan çok daha kolay.”
