Memoirs and Correspondence of Madame Recamier




Okay, so after reading the few letters from Jean Baptiste/Charles Jean included in this memoir, I can understand that Desiree might have had reasons to be jealous of this relationship.  Sex is one thing, infidelity in love is another.

Decide for yourself!
