Description

If you've seen Les Mis and are still wanting more, this new ebook could be just what you need.

Le Temps Des Cerises is set at the barricades of Paris in the 1870s, just a few years after Victor Hugo penned his epic novel.

The citizens are still suffering, this time being starved out by the Prussian siege and the Versaillais, and even rats are on the menu.

For 17-year-old Eveline Renan the horror also brings excitement as she finds herself on the frontline, caught between two lovers: the dreamy poet Laurie, and his heroic friend Alphonse.

She has no idea that just a few streets away, disgraced nun Bernadine is selling herself to save the lives of innocents, including hers.

As the Gare du Nord becomes a centre of resistance, Eveline finds a revolution on the streets that is reflected in the hearts of the soldiers, nuns, artisans, lovers and renegades of this chaotic city.

She and others are forced to find their own ways of living and dying as the fighting finally reaches the young men at the barricades of la semaine sanglante - the bloody week of the Paris Commune.
