Summary "Après le Divorce" by Marie-Anne de Bovet is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Élisabeth, a young woman navigating her life and relationships in the context of her family's expectations and the societal norms of her time. The opening sets a melancholic atmosphere following the wedding of her cousin, hinting at deeper themes of love, loss, and the complexities of marriage. The opening of the novel introduces readers to a post-wedding world, filled with a sense of disorder and melancholy as family members busy themselves with remnants of the celebration. We meet Dr. Bertereau, Élisabeth's protective uncle, who reflects on the nature of love and marriage, engaging in light-hearted discussions with Élisabeth about the expectations and realities of romantic relationships. Élisabeth's character is revealed through her interactions, as she balances her familial duties with her emerging feelings and ideals about love, which are complicated by the dominant views of her uncle and others in her family. The tone suggests an exploration of personal agency within the confines of societal pressure, setting the stage for Élisabeth's journey as the narrative unfolds.
