Book Description
The Last Courtesan details the unbridled reality of Claudie de Rochambeau. She leads a life of notoriety based on a multitude of fabricated pasts. She spreads a plague of illusions through turn-of-the-century Paris. With the reappearance of her sometimes fictional, sometimes factual biography, she regains her title as Princess of Love, and an eager young seamstress becomes the focus of Claudie's quest for an heir.
