Here is an invitation to explore the story of the Chateau of Combourg, unforgettable character in its own right, and also the childhood home of literary great François-René de Chateaubriand, who sowed the seeds of the Romantic movement. It is a place of history and legend, touched by a compelling blend of the real and the magical. The author discovered the castle more than a decade ago and it has become a place of great personal significance and inspiration. This little book is the result of her experience, research and imagination.
