Book Description
Excerpt from The Complete Writings of Alfred De Musset, Vol. 5 Mathilde (alone, sewing). One more stitch and I shall have finished. (She rings; a servant enters). Has any one arrived from Janisset's? Servant. No, madame, not yet. Math. This is provoking; hasten and tell them to come at once. (The servant goes out.) I shall have to take the first thing I can get; it is now eight o'clock; and he is dressing for the evening; I am sure he will come before it is ready. That will delay it another day. (She rises.) Making purses as a surprise for one's husband does very well for romantic young people, the first year of married life! What would Madame de Lery say if she knew it? And what will he think. Undoubtedly he will laugh at the mystery in which I have shrouded the affair, but will not laugh at the gift. But why all this mystery?

Book Description
Alfred de Musset - NO TRIFLING WITH LOVE A Comedy in Three Acts Alfred de Musset (1810-1857) was a French dramatist and poet, regarded as one of the first Romantic writers. He was also a prolific novelist of the romantic period and wrote some of the most memorable literary masterpieces of all times. Much influenced by Shakespeare and Schiller, Alfred de Musset wrote the first modern dramas in the French language. His early poems and plays were much appreciated in the French society earning him the reputation of being a dandy. In 1845 he was named a Chevalier of the Legion of Honor. Musset was elected to the French Academy in 1852. Nowadays Musset's popularity is second only to Racine and Moliere. "My glass is not big, but I drink out of my own glass," he once stated self-consciously. Musset had a profound grasp of the psychology of love and his portraits of women were multidimensional.
