About the Book

Au debut des annees 1830, Balzac travaille a un ouvrage: les Scenes de la vie militaire, scenes parmi lesquelles il place un recit, La Bataille. En decembre 1834, il en parle encore avec assurance. Il promet un tableau de Paris au commencement du XVeme siecle, une histoire du temps de Louis XIII, et, toujours, cette fameuse Bataille dont il precise l'epoque, en y ajoutant Vue de l'Empire, 1809. Quelle bataille ? Wagram ? Marengo ? Arcole ? Non, Essling. En 1833, il ecrit a Madame Hanska: "La, j'entreprends de vous initier a toutes les horreurs, a toutes les beautes d'un champ de bataille; ma bataille, c'est Essling. Essling avec toutes ses consequences. Il faut que, dans son fauteuil, un homme froid voie la campagne, les accidents de terrain, les masses d'hommes, les evenement strategiques, le Danube, les ponts, admire les details et l'ensemble de cette lutte, entende l'artillerie, s'interesse a ces mouvements d'echiquier, voie tout, sente, dans chaque articulation de ce grand corps, Napoleon, que je ne montrerai pas, ou que je laisserai voir le soir traversant dans une barque le Danube. Pas une tete de femme, des canons, des chevaux, deux armees, des uniformes; a la premiere page, le canon gronde, il se tait a la derniere." Bouscule par mille personnages, mille sujets, Balzac ne nous donnera jamais sa Bataille. La voici, racontee avec talent par Patrick Rambaud. Il nous conte ces deux journees feroces et folles, qui laissent quarante mille morts dans les bles... Quel aventure ! Une fois le Danube franchi, un matin de mai, vous chevaucherez avec Lannes, Bessieres et Massena; vous sentirez la chaleur des incendies, vous connaitrez Lejeune et les etats-majors... Un roman audacieux, dans la tourmente.
