In 1815 – with the Napoleonic era at an end and royalty restored – François-René de Chateaubriand seemed poised, along with the Bourbon family he’d long supported, to wield unprecedented power.

Already one of France’s most celebrated writers, he now became an ambassador and statesman of the French kingdom. In these memoirs, Chateaubriand writes about international politics, a papal conclave and the revolutionary strife of 1830, alongside reflections on ruins, moonlight and mortality.
