Summary "Couplées: Roman" by Marcel Boulenger is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the life of Sylvie Montreux, a celebrated actress turned baroness, who navigates her new social standing after marrying Baron Levaître. The narrative also touches on the dynamics of her relationship with her stepdaughter, Pauline, as they both become entwined in the world of high society and the sporting elite. The opening of the novel introduces the picturesque setting of Hariale, where Sylvie lives. It paints a vivid picture of the surroundings, the grandeur of the château, and the lavish lifestyle that comes with her new title. We are introduced to the complexities of Sylvie's life, including her relationships with other key characters, such as Gaston Levaître, her late husband, and the budding romance proposed by François de Caumais-Simier. The initial chapters set the stage for potential conflicts involving class distinctions, societal expectations, and personal ambitions, promising a rich exploration of human interactions and the quest for acceptance and love within a glamorous yet precarious social landscape.
