Mauprat George Sand, tradotto da Stanley Young English
Bernard starts out half feral, raised by bandit uncles in a crumbling castle, and Edmée basically refuses to love him until he makes himself worth loving, which takes years. If you like romance that's really about a person slowly being rebuilt, this is unusually satisfying.
When the World Shook H. Rider Haggard English
You’d enjoy this for its wonderfully strange Pacific-island premise, where explorers uncover ancient beings preserved in a temple and get drawn into their old feud. It’s slower and more earnest than Haggard’s adventure novels, but the mix of lost-world romance, prophecy, and uneasy reflections on civilization has a peculiar, dreamlike pull.
