Book excerpt: In this novella, the author clothes an actual backdrop with romanesque garnitures, offering in this way the reader a sympathetic, friendly story. The work is practically articulated in two settings: In the first one has essentially the life of the parents of our protagonist the leading role, and in terms of place Ireland, Great Britain and India. In the second one, the roaring and tragical scandals, incidents, duels and deaths that were springing up in the wake through Europe, America and Australia of our narrative's heroine, of that femme fatale, rolling stone sinner, Lola Montez, and which marked decisively the 19th century and proclaim her as an icon among the destinies of the track of the times. In brief, a scenario of literary scenes, a constellation of dramatical developments, which certainly do not leave untouched, uncarried away and unimpressed the reader.
