It's brought me through so many emotions. I've laughed at the characters and I've almost cried with Desiree in her despair and gotten ecstatic with her happiness. I'd reccomend this book to EVERYBODY!!!

I read this when I was a young married wife. I had the opportunity to go to Sweden and walk on the property of her castle and remember how cold it was for her. I always thought of the terrible decision she had to make as a mother and have often wondered what I would have done. Napoleon became a very real person off the pages of history because of this book. What a joy to read this again. I have possession of my own copy that I found at a used bookstore.

This is such an excellent book on so many levels that I'm surprised it has not been reprinted and a current movie made. It has all the elements of a great classic.

This was not only a great book about the French revolution, but also about life and how what we think we want is not always the best thing for us after all. I have tried to live my life by that sentiment and would really like a copy of this for my daughter to read. It was an absolutely briiliant book. Please someone print it once more for this generation!!!!

I think you have to be a teenager to read this- I was eleven. It was the 1953 version, so I don't know if this is the book everyone else seems to be talking about. If the second version is like the first, though, READ IT!!! I was lucky enough to find a copy for a dollar at a library sale, almost new then, but now I've read the cover off. If you like romance, you'll love this.

I couldn't put it down., November 26, 1998 By A Customer This review is from: Desiree (Hardcover) I loved it and I bawled buckets of tears. It tells so much about the struggles of a girl during the French Revolution and her fairytale ending. I was amazed that it was a true story. This is the best book for anyone of any age.
