| Summary | "Led Astray and The Sphinx" by Octave Feuillet is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative appears to explore themes of romantic entanglements, societal critiques, and personal introspection, primarily through the experiences of its protagonist, who finds himself beset by both the natural beauty and social frivolities of rural France. The opening of the story introduces us to the main character, who is currently staying in a quaint village where he reflects on his solitude while investigating the historical significance of Rozel Abbey. This setting serves as a contrasting backdrop to his interactions with local figures, including the peculiar miller and his wife. As the story unfolds, the character's musings are disrupted by his unexpected encounter with a wild hunt led by aristocratic figures, particularly a spirited young lady named Madame de Palme, who incites both curiosity and mischief. The beginning sets the stage for a playful but complex exploration of societal norms and personal relationships, foreshadowing a series of humorous and potentially romantic encounters in the narrative ahead.
