Le roi du Klondike by Raymond Auzias-Turenne
"Le roi du Klondike" by Raymond Auzias-Turenne is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative likely revolves around the experiences of characters involved in the gold rush era, showcasing the quest for fortune against the backdrop of a rapidly evolving social and economic landscape. At the start of this story, we are introduced to Aélis d'Auray, a skilled telegraph operator in New York City, reflecting on the contrast between
the bustling world of finance and her quest for independence. She meets Frank Smith, who recognizes her talent and offers her a position at the stock exchange. The opening is rich with metaphorical references to myths, setting the tone for a story that intertwines personal ambition with the treacherous allure of wealth in a period marked by the gold rush. As Aélis navigates her role within this male-dominated sphere, the narrative hints at deeper themes of desire, struggle, and the societal dynamics of the time.
