Title La fiancée du rebelle: Épisode de la Guerre des Bostonnais, 1775
Credits Produced by Rénald Lévesque
Summary "La fiancée du rebelle: Épisode de la Guerre des Bostonnais, 1775" by Joseph Marmette is a historical novel published in the late 19th century. The book explores the tumultuous period of the American Revolution in Canada, particularly focusing on the dynamics between French Canadians and the English authorities. Central to the narrative is the character Marc Evrard, whose struggle becomes entangled with themes of love, loyalty, and rebellion against the backdrop of conflict. The opening of the novel sets a detailed historical context, recapping the events following the British conquest of New France and the growing tensions between the American colonies and the British crown. It introduces the city of Quebec, alive with intrigue and the brewing insurrection led by American rebels, as various characters converge for a contentious gathering at the bishop's chapel. The narrative hints at Evrard's romantic interests and conflicts with Captain James Evil, an English officer, framing the struggle not only as a personal one but also a reflection of the broader sociopolitical landscape. As tensions mount, the personal stakes rise, setting the stage for a dramatic exploration of identity, allegiance, and conflict during a significant historical moment.
