About this eBook

Author Gréville, Henry, 1842-1902
Title La Niania
Credits Produced by Rénald Lévesque
Summary "La Niania" by Henry Gréville is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story primarily revolves around Antonine Karzof, a 19-year-old young woman battling her emotions and societal expectations in a complex world of love, family, and ambition. At the heart of the narrative is her relationship with Dournof, a man of lower social standing yet rich in integrity and aspiration, as they navigate the challenges posed by their families and social norms. The opening of the novel introduces Antonine just after her birthday celebration, where she is consumed with impatience waiting for Dournof, who has become the object of her hidden affection. As she reflects on their past encounters and the growing bond between them, their connection strengthens, revealing their shared dreams and the socio-economic barriers they face. Dournof, while lacking wealth, is determined to carve out a future for himself and Antonine, leading to a poignant conversation where they pledge to stand by each other despite the challenges ahead. This beautifully crafted opening sets the tone for a tale that deftly explores themes of love, ambition, and societal constraints. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
