Beschreibung

The Money Maker: Le Brasseur D¿¿¿¿¿¿¿Affaires is a novel written by Georges Ohnet and originally published in 1904. The book tells the story of a successful businessman named Andr¿¿¿¿¿ Fauvel, who has built his fortune through hard work and determination. However, his life takes a turn when he falls in love with the beautiful and ambitious Lucienne Delorme, who is determined to use her charms to climb the social ladder.As Fauvel tries to balance his love for Lucienne with his business interests, he must also contend with the machinations of his rivals and the pressures of society. The novel explores themes of love, ambition, and the corrupting influence of money, as Fauvel struggles to maintain his integrity in a world where success often comes at a steep price.Written in a rich and detailed style, The Money Maker offers a vivid portrait of turn-of-the-century France, with its opulent mansions, glittering parties, and cutthroat business dealings. Ohnet's masterful storytelling and insightful commentary on the human condition make this book a timeless classic of French literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Autor

Georges Ohnet was born in Paris. Ohnet liked Georges Sand's work and didn't like realistic current books. He started writing a series of books called Les Batailles de la vie about a simple and idealistic character. The reviewers thought they were unrealistic and boring, but the books were a big hit. Serge Panine (1881), which won an award from the academy, Le Maitre de forges (1882), La Grande Marni re (1885), Volont (1888), and Dernier Amour (1891) were all in this series. A lot of his books have been turned into plays that were big hits. For example, Le Maitre de forges were put on at the Gymnase in 1883 and ran for a whole year. Le Cr puscule (1902), Le Marchand de Poison (1903), La Conqu rante (1905), La dixi me muse (1906), La Route Rouge (1908), and La Serre de l'Aigle (1912) are some of his later works. Journal of a Bourgeois of Paris During the War of 1914 was his last book.
