La Marquise by George Sand
"La Marquise" by George Sand is a novella published in 1832. An elderly marquise who once lived at the court of Louis XV confesses her life story to a young narrator. She recounts a series of unfulfilling romantic encounters in aristocratic society, including a long liaison with the possessive Vicomte de Larrieux. Yet only one love truly captivated her heart: Lélio, a modest Italian actor whose unconventional grace inspired a secret, passionate
devotion that transformed her existence. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
