About this listen

Colonel Chabert, a brave soldier lost during the tumult of the Napoleonic wars, unexpectedly resurfaces, bringing chaos into the life of his wife who has moved on and remarried. This poignant novella by Balzac exposes the moral decay of the French Restoration era. Adapted into film several times, it saw its most recent portrayal in 1994, featuring Gerard Depardieu. - Summary by Nicole Lee
