Indiana by George Sand

"Indiana" by George Sand is a novel published in 1832. It tells the story of a young noblewoman trapped in a loveless marriage who seeks passionate love. When her charming neighbor declares his interest, she falls for him—unaware he has already seduced her maid. The novel explores female desire, adultery, and social constraints in nineteenth-century France, critiquing laws that left women without property rights or the ability to divorce under the Napoleonic Code.
