Summary "Rose Perrin" by Alice Pujo is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in a context characterized by societal change and post-war sentiments, focusing on the interactions and relationships among the upper class. The main characters include the marquise de Trivières and her daughter Diane, along with the general d'Antivy, who discusses the future of Diane and her potential suitor, Hubert, who seems to be at the center of a matchmaking scheme. The opening of this work establishes a rich social setting, beginning with a visit from General d'Antivy to the marquise de Trivières. In their conversation, they reflect on the impacts of war, the fate of young men, and the prospects for Diane's future as she is on the cusp of adulthood. The general expresses concern over Diane's upbringing, particularly regarding her perceived lack of emotional depth—an observation he connects to her social upbringing. The dialogue introduces a developing plot surrounding the matchmaking of Diane with the general's nephew, Hubert, as well as the tension between societal expectations and personal feelings. Amidst this, we meet Rose, a working-class character, who becomes entwined in Diane's plan to correspond secretly with a soldier, raising themes of social class and the search for authentic connection.
