A Novel About a Frenchman and a Scientist
In 1815, a young Frenchman by the name of August Stavfranelle is going back to his home on the north coast of France in Normandy. He passes through Paris and meets Arago who was working for E. Colde Beaux-Ar at the time. When he finds out that Arago is doing stuff, B.O. gets mostly interested in it when he finds out what Arago is up to. But Arago continues to just hold this antipathy and fear of B.O., even after they both live well into the 1850s.
