The house i loved [sound recording] / Tatiana De Rosnay.

Summary:

Paris, France: 1860s. Whole neighborhoods reduced to ashes. By order of Emperor Napoleon III, Baron Haussman has set into motion a series of large-scale renovations that will alter the face of Paris, molding it into a 'modern city.' The reforms will erase generations of history - but in the tumult, one woman will take a stand. Rose Bazelet refuses to leave, taking refuge in her basement, where she passes the time by writing letters to her late husband.
