| Summary | "Marie" by Laura E. Howe Richards is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a young girl named Marie, who escapes a life of drudgery and mistreatment under a circus troupe led by a cruel man referred to as "Le Boss." As she seeks refuge and a newfound sense of freedom, Marie's journey introduces her to new characters and experiences, highlighting themes of love, innocence, and the struggle for personal autonomy. The opening of the novel presents Marie's weariness after a long day of travel, hinting at her past life and her determination to distance herself from the oppressive environment of the troupe. As she enters a village, her joy in playing the violin for friendly children contrasts with the ominous figure of Jacques De Arthenay, who disapproves of music. A sense of connection develops between Marie and Jacques, despite his stern demeanor; he soon learns of her struggles and vows to protect her from her past. The stage is set for an engaging exploration of Marie’s desires, fears, and her quest for belonging amidst the harsh realities of her new life. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
