The Skin of Sorrow
La peau de chagrin
Rafael de Valenten is young, ambitious and poor. He dreams of getting rich and become famous, publishing a philosophical essay about the great thinkers. However, the publisher returns the manuscript to him. He falls in love with Feodor`s secular lioness - a cold and calculating beauty rejects him. Having lost the last money in the casino, he decides to commit suicide in despair. But fate was pleased that at that moment he became the owner of shagren skin, a magical talisman who carries out any desire of a person, but in return reduces the time allotted on Earth. Having concluded a fatal deal, Rafael receives everything at once: a solid position, a huge inheritance, crowds of fans of his writer`s gift, love of women, feasts, orgies, bacchanalia ...
