Claire d'Albe by Madame Cottin

The story follows Claire, married at fifteen to a sixty-year-old man, whose quiet country life is disrupted when Frédéric, a young orphaned relative, enters their household.

What begins as innocent companionship gradually transforms into forbidden love, testing the limits of duty,
desire, and moral resolve. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
