La Grande Bretèche
Honoré de Balzac
Read by Nicholas Clifford (1930-2019)





La Grande Bretèche is an addendum to Balzac's Another Study of Woman, and is the final of a set of stories told around a dinner table. This one, given to the guests at about two in the morning, is tale of marital infidelity and revenge,and perhaps might have given some of the audience a sleepless night.
