«L'Impératrice» is the novel by Nicole Avril, published by Grasset in paperback (362 pages, in French).
The work reconstructs the life of Elisabeth of Austria, the famous Sissi: her youth, her marriage to Franz Joseph, her rejection of court life, her passion for Hungary and her assassination in Geneva in 1898. Against the sugary legend, Nicole Avril portrays a cultured, melancholic and rebellious woman, set against the backdrop of nineteenth-century Central Europe.
The Grasset paperback edition, published on October 6, 1993, has 362 pages and is in French.
It will appeal to readers seeking a fictionalized approach to the figure of Sissi and the history of nineteenth-century Central Europe.
