| Summary | "Jacqueline — Volume 1" by Th. Bentzon is a novel written during the late 19th century. The story revolves around a young girl named Jacqueline, who is navigating her formative years amid the social milieu of Paris. With a cast of supporting characters that includes her charming stepmother, the attentive painter Hubert Marien, and her diverse group of friends, the book explores the themes of growing up, identity, and the complex relationships inherent in society. The beginning of the novel introduces us to Jacqueline, a young girl attending a social gathering at Madame de Nailles's home. As the young guests engage in lighthearted conversations, Jacqueline stands out with her unique beauty and poised demeanor, catching the attention of the painter Hubert Marien. As they interact, Jacqueline grapples with her youthful innocence and her emerging feelings for Marien, who, despite their age difference, plays a significant role in her life and artistic development. The narrative captures the dynamics of her friendships and the expectations placed upon her as she grows into a young woman, setting the stage for her journey of self-discovery against the backdrop of 19th-century Parisian society.
