When the tall, restless Augustin Meaulnes arrives at a small country school, he sets in motion a chain of events that will haunt him forever. One winter night, he stumbles upon a strange, hidden estate where a lavish wedding party is underway—a lost domain of music, costumes, and a beautiful girl named Yvonne de Galais. But by morning the place has vanished, and Meaulnes must spend years trying to find his way back. His quest takes him through friendship, betrayal, and heartbreak, and forces him to confront the cost of chasing a perfect memory. This faithful modern retelling brings Alain-Fournier's luminous novel into clear, vivid English while preserving its haunting atmosphere and emotional depth. Part of Timeless Classics.
