Summary "Madeleine, jeune femme" by René Boylesve is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around a young woman named Madeleine who finds herself in a marriage of convenience, feeling a deep sense of regret and nostalgia as she embarks on her new life. The narrative explores themes of societal expectations and the struggle between personal desires and familial obligations. The opening of the novel introduces us to Madeleine on her wedding day, a moment she dreads rather than celebrates. As she reflects on her past and the circumstances leading to her marriage to an architect named Achille Serpe, she reveals her discontent. The passage highlights her inner turmoil, focusing on her feelings of resignation rather than excitement as she contemplates her life choices. The initial chapters set the stage for her journey, intertwining her experiences of marriage with her yearning for self-discovery and the challenges of adapting to a new role in society.
