| Summary | "Charlie" by Fernand Vandérem is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story introduces us to the characters of Madame Lahonce and her young son Charlie. As they navigate a walk in Paris, the themes of societal perceptions and personal secrets begin to surface, hinting at complex relationships and underlying tensions. The opening of the novel presents a glimpse into the lives of Madame Lahonce and Charlie as they move through a bustling Parisian street on a grey, rainy day. Madame Lahonce is described as being in a hurry, seemingly anxious to meet someone, which adds a layer of suspense to their outing. The dynamic between mother and son is warm, yet the interactions with others reflect differing judgments—some admire the duo, while others cast a more discerning gaze on the mother. As they encounter Vincent Favierres, tensions and romantic undertones develop, suggesting Madame Lahonce's hidden feelings for him, which Charlie unknowingly senses. This complex web of emotions sets the stage for a deeper exploration of love, fidelity, and the societal norms of the time as we move through the story.
