Fictional memoirs (?) of Marie-Madelaine Pioche de La Vergne, Madame de Lafayette: all published initially anonymously. This work includes the shorter works The Princess de Montpensier and The Countess de Tende. The prose, to me at least, tends to be reflected in Dumas Celebrated Crimes. These are histories with an added flair for the dramatic: all tragedies.
