The death wedding

[Pippa Grantham]

Strange and apparently true tale from 19 century France:

Is this Maupassant or Flaubert??

Neither.
I think it is a harrowing tale with few bit and pieces not quite together almost outstanding.
Interesting dancing is mentioned as a sport.
The title rings a bell with Three Weddings and a Funeral.
Will further research it.
