Lewis and Irene by Paul Morand
"Lewis and Irene" by Paul Morand is a novel published in 1924. It follows the turbulent romance between Lewis, a French financial speculator, and Irene Apostolatos, a young Greek widow from a banking family.

Secret dealings and betrayal threaten their bond, forcing them to redefine their relationship. A story of ambition, desire, and the impossibility
of choosing between passion and profit. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
