Description
War and fortune tore two families apart . . . and an indomitable love brought them together
In
nineteenth-century France, sixteen thousand hectares of vineyard spread
across Lower Corrèze. Count Firmin de Janelles rules over Chantegrêle.
The Madelbos and Pierrebrune families detest one another, and the advent
of Napoleon III awakens the hostilities between the village
Bonapartists and Republicans. Meanwhile, the count is in financial ruin
because of a devastating insect ravaging the vineyards.
But amid
the decline of the Empire, a powerful love between Alain Madelbos and
Albine Pierrebrune blossoms. This unexpected union will bring about the
alliance and reconciliation of the warring townspeople while Republican
idealism triumphs and a new breed of landowners emerges.
