Summary "Told in a French Garden" by Mildred Aldrich is a collection of interconnected stories written in the early 20th century. The narrative unfolds in a picturesque French garden, where a diverse gathering of friends reunites amid the backdrop of World War I. Each chapter invites a different character to share their unique tale, offering reflections on life, love, and the complexities of human experience during tumultuous times. At the start of the book, the author introduces a group of old acquaintances, each with their own backgrounds and experts in various fields, who find themselves spending the summer in a French garden in July 1914, just before the outbreak of war. As they bask in the beauty of their surroundings, the characters engage in conversations that reveal their personal lives and philosophies, setting the stage for an upcoming series of storytelling sessions. The reader is drawn into their dynamic as they recount tales from their pasts, all while the looming threat of war begins to cast a shadow over their idyllic summer retreat.
