Excerpt from Revue des Deux Mondes, Vol. 90: Lviiie Année, Troisième Période; 1er Novembre 1888
Tout au milieu, entre deux rangs de peupliers, La Sauve roulait paisiblement ses eaux claires, rompant comme à plaisir la mono tonie des champs tirés au cordeau.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This captivating novel transports readers to the late 19th century French countryside, where the lives of two young women become entwined in a tale of love, loss, and the complexities of rural life. As the author delves into the day-to-day existence of these women, they explore the societal constraints and expectations that shape their destinies. At the heart of the story lies the protagonist, Margaridou, a young servant working on a farm. Her world is upended when she is pursued by her master, Jean-Pierre, a man torn between his desires and the boundaries of morality. Amidst the stark beauty of the French countryside, the author masterfully weaves a rich tapestry of human experiences, capturing the essence of a bygone era and the enduring power of the human spirit. This poignant and evocative novel offers a profound meditation on the nature of love, the resilience of women, and the ways in which traditional values can both sustain and suffocate the human heart. Through its lyrical prose and unforgettable characters, the author invites readers to reflect on the timeless themes of passion, duty, and the search for meaning in a world of hardship and uncertainty.
