Toote üksikasjad
- NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - The incomparable Danielle Steel breaks new ground as she takes us to nineteenth-century England, where a high-born young woman is forced out into the world--and begins a journey of survival, sensuality, and long-sought justice. Angélique Latham has grown up at magnificent Belgrave Castle under the loving tutelage of her father, the Duke of Westerfield, after the death of her aristocratic French mother. At eighteen she is her father's closest, most trusted child, schooled in managing their grand estate. But when he dies, her half-brothers brutally turn her out, denying her very existence. Angélique has a keen mind, remarkable beauty, and an envelope of money her father pressed upon her. To survive, she will need all her resources--and one bold stroke of fortune. Unable to secure employment without references or connections, Angélique desperately makes her way to Paris, where she rescues a young woman fleeing an abusive madam--and suddenly sees a possibility: Open an elegant house of pleasure that will protect its women and serve only the best clients. With her upper-class breeding, her impeccable style, and her father's bequest, Angélique creates Le Boudoir, soon a sensational establishment where powerful men, secret desires, and beautiful, sophisticated women come together. But living on the edge of scandal, can she ever make a life of her own--or regain her rightful place in the world? From England to Paris to New York, Danielle Steel captures an age of upheaval and the struggles of women in a male-ruled society--and paints a captivating portrait of a woman of unquenchable spirit, who in houses great or humble is every ounce a duchess.

Danielle Steel Contemporary Romance Books Editorial Review
The Duchess by Danielle Steel received mixed feedback from readers. One reviewer praised the book, commending the author's ability to captivate readers with the story of Angélique Latham, set against the historical backdrop of England, Paris, and New York City. They described it as a fantastic read, expressing their inability to put the book down. However, another reviewer, who admitted to not being a fan of Steel, expressed disappointment in the thin plot, unbelievable story, and lack of romance. They found the multiple points of view and rushed ending to be annoying and felt that the book read more like a movie script than a novel. Despite enjoying the heroine's character development and the narration, they ultimately didn't recommend the book. Additionally, a third reviewer found the book to be repetitive and could not continue reading it, describing it as horrible. The Duchess appears to have resonated well with fans of Danielle Steel's work, but it may not appeal to those less familiar with her writing style.
