"An epic love story...irresistible reading." -Chicago Tribune To be young, in France, and in love: fourteen year old Desiree can't believe her good fortune. Her fiance, a dashing and ambitious Napoleon Bonaparte, is poised for battlefield success, and no longer will she be just a French merchant's daughter. She could not have known the twisting path her role in history would take, nearly breaking her vibrant heart but sweeping her to a life rich in passion and desire. A love story, but so much more, D sir e explores the landscape of a young heart torn in two, giving readers a compelling true story of an ordinary girl whose unlikely brush with history leads to a throne no one would have expected. An epic bestseller that has earned both critical acclaim and mass adoration, D sir e is at once a novel of the rise and fall of empires, the blush and fade of love, and the heart and soul of a woman. "This is a fascinating panorama, from the blood-and-sawdust reek of Robespierre's guillotine to the final collapse of the Hundred Days." -New York Times What Readers Are Saying "An absolutely marvelous story about a courageous woman in a difficult time who made difficult choices... one of the best books I have ever read." "D sir e seems to come alive when I read, and I become her. This book is so romantic, so colorful and full of adventure." "This book has meant so much to so many women." "History has never before been as human as it is here, told through the pages of D sir e's (fictitious) diary."… (plus d'informations)

Román Désirée, čerpajúca z historických prameňov, si získal čitateľov na celom svete a bol aj sfilmovaný. Autorka s pôvabom a vľúdnym humorom rozpráva osudy Désirée Claryové, dcéry marseillského obchodníka s hodvábom a Napoleonovej prvej lásky. Prevratné historické udalosti, Napoleonova cesta ku sláve, jeho pád i drobné udalosti zo zákulisia - to všetko je videné stále trochu udivenými očami jeho mladučkej snúbenice. Désirée trvalo žije v Napoleonovej dôvernej blízkosti, vída ho v kruhu početnej rodiny Bonaparte a potom oficiálne na recepciách a slávnostiach ako manželka francúzskeho maršala Jeana Baptista Bernadotta, neskoršieho švédskeho kráľa. Vzťah Désirée a Napoleona si cez neustále zvraty uchováva zvláštne napätie a nostalgiu prvej lásky.

Recommended by a friend. Read years ago. One of my favorite books of all time. ( )

This is a history novel I inherited from my great-grandmother, so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but Selinko certainly impressed me. The diary form was smart on her side - it made it possible to smoothly skip months/years in the storyline. Désiréé is such a likeable character, and her story was extraordinary and ordinary at the same time. I particularly liked the diary entries of her youth (getting to know Napoleon, her marriage, etc.) and the latter part of the book.

I’m giving it 4 stars, because I thought the story got a little redundant about midway through and there was too much emphasis on the political events that occurred at that time (although they did teach me a lot about the French revolution!). I’d recommend this to anyone who is interested in French history and royalty. ( )

La trama e le recensioni di Désirée, romanzo di Annemarie Selinko edito da Neri Pozza. È il marzo del 1794 a Marsiglia e, davanti al municipio, la ghigliottina continua a tagliare nobili teste. Figlia di François Clary, un commerciante di sete che è riuscito a trasformare la sua bottega in uno dei più eleganti negozi di Marsiglia, Bernardine Eugénie Désirée non avrebbe nulla da temere da quei turbolenti anni seguiti alla grande rivoluzione. Ha natali borghesi e neanche una goccia di sangue blu in famiglia. Tuttavia, i capricci dei tribunali rivoluzionari, si sa, sono imprevedibili. Etienne, il fratello maggiore, è stato accusato di oscuri misfatti e Désirée, insieme con la cognata Suzanne, si è recata ieri alla Maison Commune per incontrare Albitte, l’illustre deputato giacobino di Marsiglia, e discolpare il primogenito dei Clary. Alla Maison Commune ha conosciuto il segretario di Albitte, Joseph Bonaparte, un còrso in possesso di invidiabili qualità: gli stivali lustri e l’aria decisa, la conoscenza personale di Robespierre e, addirittura, un fratello generale. Desiderosa di apprendere qualche dettaglio delle eroiche battaglie di Valmy e di Wattignies, Désiréee ha invitato Joseph e suo fratello Napoleone a casa Clary. Eccola, ora, seduta, insieme con la sua famiglia e i due giovani còrsi, intorno al grande tavolo ovale dell’elegante dimora del commerciante di sete. Davanti a lei, il generale. Piccolo, con addosso niente che luccichi, né decorazioni né cordoni. Solo delle piccole spalline dorate. Il volto magro, dalla pelle tesa e bruciata dal sole, è incorniciato da capelli rosso-bruni. I capelli arruffati cadono fin sopra le spalle senza nessuna traccia di cipria. Quando ride, la sua faccia sparuta assume improvvisamente un aspetto fanciullesco e allora sembra più giovane di quanto in realtà non sia. Così comincia questo romanzo che narra della straordinaria vita di Bernardine Eugénie Désirée Clary, ragazza di Marsiglia che infranse il cuore di Napoleone Bonaparte e, dopo aver sposato il maresciallo Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte, divenne regina di Svezia e Norvegia col nome di Desideria. Pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1951, trasposto al cinema nel 1954 in una celebre pellicola con Marlon Brando nel ruolo di Napoleone, Désirée è uno dei più grandi bestseller della storia della letteratura con più di venti milioni di copie vendute.

A woman can usually get what she wants from a man if she has a well-developed figure. So I've decided to stuff four handkerchiefs into the front of my dress tomorrow; then I shall look really grown up. Actually I am grown up already, but nobody else knows that, and I don't altogether look it.
