Description

“The Office of Shadows” is a collection of stories by Anatole France, in which the characters face a moral choice, experience complicated feelings, and conduct an inner dialogue about the meaning of existence, faith, and love. Sketches of society of his era—with its social contrasts, personal ambitions, and people’s virtues and weaknesses—are, in the author’s refined style, arranged into a chain of engaging stories that reveal different sides and hidden depths of the human soul.
