Adolphe : Anecdote trouvée dans les papiers d'un inconnu by Benjamin Constant
"Adolphe: Anecdote trouvée dans les papiers d'un inconnu" by Benjamin Constant is a novel published in 1816. This masterwork of psychological analysis chronicles the inexorable decay of a romantic relationship. Adolphe seduces Ellénore more from a desire to love than true passion, then finds himself trapped—unable to break free or truly commit. Caught between sincerity and self-deception, he drags them both toward destruction. The story unfolds as a manuscript found by chance,
revealing one man's devastating confession about the misery of the human heart. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
