The Women's War by Alexandre Dumas
The Baron des Canolles is a man, torn apart by the civil war that dominates mid-17th century France. For while the naive Gascon soldier cares little for the politics behind the battles, he is torn apart by a passion, for two powerful women on opposing sides of the war. This book talks about two women, taking central stage in a battle, for France.Alexandre Dumas (1824-95) was a pioneer of the Romantic theatre in France, for which he wrote a series of colourful historical dramas, although it is as a novelist that he is best known today. His works include The Three Musketeers (1844-5), La Reine Margot (1845) and The Count of Monte Cristo (1844-5).
Robin Buss is a journalist and translator. For Penguin, his translations include works by Sartre, Zola and, most recently, The Plague by Camus.
