Unusually Blue Blood
"…I take pride in my ancestors who were guillotined during the French Revolution. I believe that my maternal lineage, the Counts de Chastenet de la Rocheposay, bequeathed to me a taste for chivalry, a desire to squander, and the art of living elegantly..." Thus speaks Frédéric Beigbeder in an exclusive interview for this remarkable new issue of the magazine—an interview that serves merely as a gateway to the truly captivating stories that follow.
What matters is that a portion of that mystical blue blood not only survived, but also revealed unsuspected talents among ordinary mortals—a fact that, I suspect, still provokes a certain degree of envy. Aristocrats in disguise conquered the theatre stage and the silver screen, became brilliant artists and visionary scientists—in short, they embodied all those qualities that led the great modern thinker Edmund Burke to proclaim that "aristocracy is an elegant ornament to civil society."
