Synopsis

A young man named Tony discovers a surprising family secret that roars to life during a night at a Paris theatre, steering him toward a new destiny.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book's main subject is Antoine, a boy stranded alone in Paris at ten years old because his father wanted him to fail. However, he is found by a kind-hearted English man who takes him in as his servant. This sets off a chain of events where Antoine serves on a ship, is left again, gets picked up by another man, and is finally adopted by a third. Throughout his life, he remains heartbroken over his mother's death and determined to become a man as quickly as possible so that he can never be hurt by his father again. This story follows Antoine from ten until seventeen, and it gives the readers insight into what it means to be alone and to live in poverty and to have to fend for one's self. The author provides commentary on human nature and the nature of social ills that strike children and the themes of loneliness, the desire for freedom, and the different ways people find a sense of peace and fulfilment in life.
