Trilby: Illustrated. E-book. Formato EPUB George Du Maurier - George Du Maurier, 2014 -
Trilby is a novel by George du Maurier and one of the most popular novels of its time, perhaps the second best selling novel of the turn of the century era (often known as Fin de siècle) after Bram Stoker's Dracula. Published serially in Harper's Monthly in 1894, it was published in book form in 1895 and sold 200,000 copies in the United States alone. Trilby is set in the 1850s in an idyllic bohemian Paris. Though it features the stories of two English artists and a Scottish artist, one of the most memorable characters is Svengali, a Jewish rogue, masterful musician and hypnotist. Trilby O'Ferrall, the novel's heroine, is a half-Irish girl working in Paris as an artists' model and laundress; all the men in the novel are in love with her. The relationship between Trilby and Svengali forms only a small portion of the novel, which is mainly an evocation of a milieu but it is a crucial one.

Trilby O’Ferrall, fascinosa modella “dal vivo” dei grandi atelier parigini, incontra tre giovani artisti, che si innamorano all’istante di lei. Intorno al quartetto si forma un gruppo di pittori, musicisti e intellettuali dediti alle arti e al piacere. Le vite dei giovani bohémien si intrecciano tra le strade di una Parigi gotica e seducente, ma sui loro destini grava l’ombra del violinista Svengali, un uomo senza scrupoli intenzionato a sfruttare Trilby per diventare ricco. Primo vero bestseller della letteratura moderna, Trilby è il romanzo da cui ha avuto origine il mito della bohème. Con questa traduzione d’autore arriva per la prima volta nelle mani dei lettori italiani. "Trilby era venuta lì per condurre una vita libera e disinvolta tra gli artisti del Quartiere Latino di Parigi: la vita della bohème!”
