Le Gentleman: An Idyll Of The Quarter is a novel written by Ethel Sidgwick, first published in 1911. The story is set in the bohemian quarter of Paris, where the protagonist, a young Englishman named Jack, falls in love with a beautiful French woman named Jeanne. Jack is a gentleman who has come to Paris to study art, while Jeanne is a singer in a local caf�����. Despite their different backgrounds, the two fall deeply in love and begin a passionate affair. However, their happiness is short-lived as Jack's father disapproves of their relationship and threatens to disinherit him if he doesn't return to England. Jack is torn between his love for Jeanne and his duty to his family, and the novel explores the themes of love, duty, and sacrifice. The book is a charming portrayal of bohemian Paris and the love story between Jack and Jeanne is both romantic and heartbreaking. Sidgwick's writing is lyrical and evocative, painting a vivid picture of the city and its inhabitants. Le Gentleman: An Idyll Of The Quarter is a classic love story that will appeal to fans of romance and historical fiction.This Book Is In English.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
