Marquis de Villemer

by George Sand

Caroline, a young woman of intelligence and refinement, finds herself thrust into a world of social disparity after her father's financial ruin. Forced to seek a living as a lady companion in Paris, she encounters the opulent world she can only dream of. This stark contrast in their backgrounds sets the stage for a compelling tale of love and societal barriers. As Caroline finds herself drawn to the good Marquis of Villemer, a man of noble birth and undeniable charm, she must confront the chasm that separates their social classes and the prejudice that threatens their budding connection. Will her intelligence and strength of character ultimately conquer the societal constraints that stand between them?
