Book excerpt: The French dramatist and poet Alfred de Musset was a prominent figure of the Romantic Movement, who had come under the influence of Charles Nodier, Alfred de Vigny and Victor Hugo from an early age. He became a dandy and embarked on a life of hectic sexual and alcoholic dissipation, as vividly narrated in his notorious novel ‘The Confession of a Child of the Century’. His works capture the essence of his times, when traditional values were under attack and many were ruled by their emotions rather than reason.
