| Summary | "Incertidumbre" by Hermine Oudinot Lecomte du Noüy is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in a social setting that examines the moral complexities of love and societal expectations, particularly reflecting on the lives of the main characters Juan Durand, a humble young man taken in by the wealthy Aubry family, and María Teresa, the daughter who is unaware of his deep feelings for her. The narrative delves into themes of class disparity, unrequited love, and the noble sacrifices made in the name of affection. The opening portion of the book introduces a vibrant social scene at a celebration in the Aubry family's castle, where we meet Juan, who feels melancholic despite the festivities around him. His friend Jaime tries to cheer him up, but it becomes clear that Juan harbors a secret love for María Teresa, which complicates their friendship. As the conversation shifts, we learn about the social dynamics and the pressures that weigh on Juan, who sees himself as inferior due to his humble origins, leading him to conceal his true feelings. This established context sets the stage for a rich exploration of love, ambition, and moral dilemmas against the backdrop of early 20th-century society.
