Feder or The Moneyed Husband Novel by Stendhal

Description

Excellent condition with only very minor signs of external wear. At the age of seventeen Feder, one of the most well-to-do youths in Marseilles, was expelled from the paternal roof; he had just committed a major error: he had married an actress from the Grand Theatre. His father, a most moral and also rich German merchant long established at Marseilles, used to curse Voltaire and Frech irony twenty times a day; and what perhaps infuriated him most in his son's peculiar marriage was a few light remarks a la francaise with which the latter sought to justify himself.
