Histoire de Céleste Mogador, amie d'Alexandre Dumas

A courtesan, the queen of the Mabille ball would rise through society to become a countess by marriage, a woman of letters through her talent, and an example of virtue through her conduct. A fantastical life full of contrasts, battles, and plot twists. Quite enough to earn the admiration of a certain Alexandre Dumas, who would become her steadfast friend and... co-author!
