Stephanie Felicite Ducrest de St Albin Comtesse de Genlis : Olympe et Theophile

'My dear Caroline, I am very glad to have an opportunity of answering your agreable [sic] little Letter. You seem to be quite my own Neice [sic] in your feelings towards Mde de Genlis. I do not think I could even now, at my sedate time of Life, read "Olimpe et Theophile" without being in a rage. It really is too bad! Not allowing them to be happy together, when they are married. Don't talk of it, pray. I have just let your Aunt Frank the 1st vol. of Les Veilles du Chateau, for Mary Jane to read.'

Century: 1700-1799 / 1800-1849     Reader/Listener/Group: Jane Austen      Print: Book
