While it was the school teacher Nelly Cavallero who attracted the media spotlight, countless other insurgent unruly radicals contested the oppressive order, organizing in schools, factories, and communes. In The Cavalier, Quintane paints an intimate and urgently political portrait of revolutionary desires and the rising tides of reaction that determined, among many others, Nelly’s fate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Winter Editions","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47460918395105,"sku":"9781959708155","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0510\/5215\/0960\/files\/Cavalier-Nathalie-Quintane.jpg?v=1777073602","url":"https:\/\/50wattsbooks.com\/en-ca\/products\/the-cavalier-nathalie-quintane","provider":"50 Watts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
