Manon Lescaut: Romaani Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manon_Lescaut Wikipedia page about this book: https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manon_Lescaut_(roman) E-text prepared by Timo Ervasti and Tapio Riikonen "Manon Lescaut: Romaani" by abbé Prévost is a novel written in the early 18th century. The book centers around the intense and tragic love story between the young nobleman Chevalier des Grieux and the beautiful Manon Lescaut. Their passionate yet tumultuous relationship explores themes of love, desire, and the consequences of personal choices. At the start of the novel, the narrator, who appears to be an older man, reflects on his past encounters, introducing us to Chevalier des Grieux—a young man deeply in love with Manon. Des Grieux, described as noble and passionate, encounters Manon while she is being transported as a captive to America along with other women. However, it is during a stop that des Grieux's love for Manon blossoms upon seeing her, and he decides to take bold steps to help her escape captivity. The opening vividly captures the dynamic and emotional complexities of their relationship, setting the stage for a dramatic tale of love and its inherent struggles.
