Overview
A self-made millionaire from the provinces seeks acceptance in the glittering society of Paris. As he rises in the political and social ranks, he discovers the dark costs of ambition and privilege. Can wealth and power shield him from the betrayals and disillusionments of high society?The Nabob is a richly textured portrait of ambition and moral decay in 19th-century Paris. Daudet's sharp prose and vivid characterizations bring to life the struggles of one man to reconcile his success with the ruthless world around him.
