The Ladies Paradise (Au Bonheur des Dames) recounts the rise of the modern department store in late nineteenth-century Paris. The store is a symbol of capitalism, of the modern city, and of the bourgeois family: it is emblematic of changes in consumer culture and the changes in sexual attitudes and class relations taking place at the end of the century.

Now that I'm retired I've begun rebuilding what had been a fabulous library of source-texts about religion along the Silk Road. A very good read. I'd say this is the best precursor..

We see the everyday struggles of two people trying to do the right thing not only for themselves, but for each other and for the love of a child.
If you are looking for a book that will show you what the meaning of love, compassion, forgivenes
