At Fault
Edited with an Introduction and Notes by
Bernard Koloski
Both romantic and filled with stark
realism, At Fault is a love story about the
challenge of balancing personal happiness
and moral duty. Written at the beginning
of Chopin’s career, At Fault parallels her
own life and prefigures her later work.
