Zoe, Or The Martel Papers: A Manuscript Of The Conciergerie (1865) is a novel written by Washington Frothingham. The book tells the story of Zoe Martel, a young woman who is imprisoned in the Conciergerie during the French Revolution. The manuscript of her story is discovered by the narrator, who is a friend of her family. The novel is divided into two parts. The first part is the manuscript itself, which is written in the form of letters from Zoe to her father. In these letters, she describes her experiences in prison and her relationships with the other prisoners. The second part of the novel is the narrator's commentary on the manuscript, in which he provides historical context and reflects on the themes of the story. The novel explores themes of love, loyalty, and sacrifice in the midst of political upheaval. It is a powerful and moving account of one woman's struggle to survive in a time of great turmoil.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
