Based on a story by the Abbé Prévost, Daniel Auber wrote the first operatic version, Manon Lescaut. Some years later Jules Massenet wrote Manon, widely regarded as his masterpiece. A third version, also titled Manon Lescaut, was set early in his career by Giacomo Puccini. Auber's is the least-known of the three, but even lesser-known is a sequel Massenet wrote, Le Portrait de Manon.
