About the author
Born in Saint-Lô in 1821, Octave Feuillet was the son of a prominent lawyer. After returning to Paris, he worked as a journalist and collaborated with Paul Bocage on several plays before establishing himself as a novelist and dramatist.
Feuillet’s writing occupies a place between Romanticism and Realism, combining polished style with close attention to emotion, character, and social life. His 1858 novel Le Roman d’un jeune homme pauvre became his most popular work and was adapted for the stage and screen several times.
He was elected to the Académie française in 1862 and later served as librarian of the Palace of Fontainebleau. Feuillet died in Paris in 1890.
