About this work
Paul and Virginia, two fatherless children are brought up in poverty and innocence, amid the tropical scenery of the island of Mauritius. Virginia is recalled to France by a harsh and wealthy aunt. There she is miserable, and after two years returns to the island. But her ship is wrecked and she is drowned before the eyes of Paul.
