Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Art of Being Bored (Le Monde O� L'on S'ennuie) A Comedy in Three Acts
Paul. Very well, dear. I call you dear, as we are alone, but later on, before the guests, it must be merely Jeanne. The Comtesse de C�ran has done me the honor of asking me to introduce my young wife to her, and of spending a few days here at her chateau. Mme. De Ceran's circle is one of the three or four most in?uential in Paris. We are not here' to amuse ourselves. I come here merely a Sub-prefect; I am determined to leave a Prefect. Everything depends on her - upon us - upon you!
