«Vingt-quatre heures de la vie d'une femme» is the short novel by Stefan Zweig, published by Stock in paperback (179 pages, in French).
On the French Riviera at the start of the twentieth century, an English widow meets a young man ruled by gambling at the Monte Carlo casino and decides to help him. Over twenty-four hours she is swept up by an unexpected passion that questions her bourgeois life; the narrative explores obsession, chance and the impulses that change a destiny.
The work was originally published in 1925 as «Vierundzwanzig Stunden im Leben einer Frau»; the present French edition from Stock dates from 1995.
