Publisher's Synopsis
""The Prisoners of St. Lazare"" is a novel written by Pauline de Grandpre in 1872. The story is set in Paris during the 19th century and follows the lives of two women, one a prisoner at the infamous St. Lazare prison and the other a young girl who is falsely accused of a crime and sent to the same prison. The novel explores the harsh realities of life in prison, the corrupt justice system of the time, and the struggles of the two women to survive and maintain their dignity in the face of adversity. Along the way, they encounter a cast of colorful characters, including fellow prisoners, sympathetic guards, and members of the Parisian elite who are drawn into their story. Ultimately, the novel is a powerful commentary on the injustice and cruelty of the prison system and the importance of hope and perseverance in the face of oppression.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
