| Summary | "Sisar Rosa" by Wilkie Collins is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the impending marriage of Rosa, the main character, and the emotions, tensions, and social dynamics surrounding it, particularly the observations of those connected to the families involved, including servants and relatives. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to a summer evening in 1789 near Rouen, where two servants discuss the upcoming marriage of Miss Rosa. Various characters are introduced during a gathering, highlighting the complexities of their relationships and underlying tensions, particularly between Rosa’s brother, Louis Trudaine, and her fiancé, Charles Danville. Through this discussion, subtle hints of unease, familial loyalty, and the future challenges that may arise from the marriage begin to emerge, setting the stage for a drama filled with emotional conflict and societal critique.
