About This Book

Le bal: The Kampfs decide to throw a ball in order to launch themselves into society. Their daughter Antoinette, who has just turned fourteen, dreams of attending. But Madame Kampf is resolved not to present her daughter, already so grown up, to her admirers. Instead, Antoinette is forced to sleep in the laundry room, as her bedroom is used as coatroom.

Snow in autumn: Pays homage to Chekhov and chronicles the life of a devoted servant following her masters as they flee revolutionary Moscow and emigrate to a life of hardship in Paris.
