1890. After joining the French Navy, Loti (pen name of Julien Marie
Viaud) saw the world from shipboard. He spent long months among the
palm groves of the South Seas; he visited the scorching coast of
Senegal and the seas of Iceland. A prolific writer, Loti used every
strange and exotic scene as a background for his romance novels.
Madame Chrysantheme is an impressionistic diary of Loti's trip to
Japan, his encounter with a famous Japanese girl and their romance.
This romantic tale of travel and adventure in Japan is thought to
have influenced Puccini's Madam Butterfly. See other titles by this
author available from Kessinger Publishing.
