| Summary | "Les Dernières Années du Marquis et de la Marquise de Bombelles" by Fleury is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the life and times of the Marquis and Marquise de Bombelles, focusing on their experiences in the late 18th century as they navigate the complexities of French society during a period of political upheaval. The narrative likely delves into their personal lives alongside significant historical events, likely exploring the tension between their social standing and the emerging revolutionary sentiments. The opening of the narrative sets the stage in 1788, describing the return of the Marquis de Bombelles to France after completing his diplomatic duties in Portugal. Upon arriving in Versailles, he reunites with his family and immediately engages in his social and political obligations, visiting various prominent figures in the court. Through his journal entries, readers gain insights into his observations of political dynamics, social gatherings, and the mounting unrest in the provinces. The beginning effectively establishes the intricate web of relationships and responsibilities that define the Bombelles family's life, hinting at the challenges they will face in the turbulent months to come as the Revolution looms on the horizon.
