Summary "La petite Jeanne; ou, Le devoir" by Zulma Carraud is a novel written in the late 19th century. This work appears to focus on the themes of hardship, kindness, and duty through the lives of its characters, particularly following the journey of a young girl named Jeanne. The narrative highlights her innocence and resilience while navigating the challenges faced by the poor in rural French society. At the start of the story, we are introduced to the character of Jeanne through the lens of her interactions with Mother Nannette, a kind-hearted widow, and her mother Catherine, who falls into destitution after the loss of her husband. Jeanne's world is small but filled with compassion, as evidenced by her mother’s efforts to care for Jeanne amid their hardships. The opening sets the stage for a narrative rich in themes of charity and moral duty, as Jeanne learns the value of honesty by returning a lost bracelet, and we see the community’s spirit come alive through their interactions. The reader is immediately drawn into a poignant exploration of poverty and the kindness that can flourish even in difficult circumstances. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
