About the Book

Henry Greville, whose real name is Alice Marie Celeste Durand born Fleury, born October 12, 1842, in Paris, and died May 26, 1902 in Boulogne-Billancourt, is a French woman of letters. Henry Greville, de son vrai nom Alice Marie Celeste Durand nee Fleury, nee le 12 octobre 1842, a Paris, et morte le 26 mai 1902, a Boulogne-Billancourt, est une femme de lettres francaise. Extrait: Chapitre1 La grande rue de Beaumont etait pleine de poussiere, de soleil et de silence. Personne sur le seuil des maisons de pierre grise, uniformement construites sur le meme modele, suivant une ligne tiree au cordeau. Au-dessus du rez-de-chaussee s'elevait un premier etage aux fenetres garnies de petits carreaux verdatres, doubles pour l' il du curieux de rideaux de mousseline blanche a fleurs, plus impenetrables que les triples voiles d'Isis. Madame Lagarde tricotait paisiblement un bas qui n'en finissait plus, tant la jambe en etait longue; derogeant aux usages des gens comme il faut du pays, elle avait garde a sa maison l'ancienne porte coupee en deux dans le sens de la hauteur, dont la partie inferieure, fermee au loquet, protegeait la salle contre les invasions probables des chiens, des poules, des oies, voire meme des agneaux egares. La partie superieure, formant volet, restait ouverte et suppleait d'une maniere tres efficace au jour insuffisant que donnait l'unique fenetre de la grande piece du rez-de-chaussee. -Voici la poste qui arrive, dit a demi-voix madame Lagarde au moment ou la petite diligence jaune, trainee par un seul cheval qui emportait parfois jusqu'a huit personnes, malgre sa maigreur apocalyptique, passa devant sa fenetre avec un bruit de ferraille distinct, mais modeste, comme il convient a un equipage qui fait le service public, paye par le gouvernement. La vieille dame retomba dans son silence ordinaire, coupe seulement par le cliquetis regulier des aiguilles dans le bas de laine; les facteurs, un a un, entrerent dans le bureau de poste, d'ou ils ressortirent bientot, le lourd sac plein de journaux et de lettres pendu en bandouliere, le gros baton d'epine a la main. -Melanie, cria madame Lagarde, va donc voir a la poste s'il n'y a pas de lettres pour moi. -Eh! mon Dieu, pourquoi voulez-vous qu'il y ait des lettres pour vous? fit Melanie en apparaissant sur le seuil de la cuisine qui donnait du cote oppose sur un petit jardin plein de lavande et de romarin. Vous avez eu une lettre de votre fils, il y a quinze jours, et vous savez bien que personne d'autre ne vous ecrit. Et puis, ce n'est pas votre jour de journal."
