Summary "Œuvres complètes de Guy de Maupassant - volume 05" by Guy de Maupassant is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows the life of a young woman named Jeanne as she transitions from the confines of a convent to the freedoms of adulthood, exploring her emotions, aspirations, and budding romance. The narrative captures the contrast between her sheltered upbringing and her desires for love and adventure. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Jeanne, who has just left the convent and is eager to embrace life outside its walls. The scene is set with a heavy rain that delays her anticipated departure with her family to their countryside estate in Normandy. As they journey, Jeanne's contrasting emotions of joy and impatience come to life through her interactions with her father, the baron, and her mother, the baroness. Descriptions of the luxurious yet faded elegance of their family chateau create a vivid backdrop as Jeanne revels in her newfound freedom and daydreams about love, hinting at her growing attachment to the vicomte de Lamare, who soon enters their lives. The opening portion of the book establishes Jeanne's character and her longing for a romantic future, inviting the reader to join her on a journey of self-discovery and personal growth.
