«Le roman de Jeanne d'Arc» is the historical novel by Philippe de Villiers, published by Albin Michel in paperback (552 pages, in French).
Philippe de Villiers follows in the footsteps of Joan of Arc through Domrémy, Chinon, Orléans, Compiègne, Le Crotoy and Rouen, travels the Loire and retraces the route of her coronation and her capture. Far from the image of a stained-glass saint, he offers a human and intimate portrait: a fragile yet determined warrior, devoted to her faith and her country.
