Summary: "Antoinette de Mirecourt, ou, Mariage secret et Chagrins cachés" by Mrs. Leprohon is a Canadian novel written in the mid-19th century. The story centers around Antoinette de Mirecourt, a young girl from a noble family navigating the complexities of society, familial expectations, and romantic entanglements amid the backdrop of post-colonial Canada. The novel seeks to provide a moral lesson against clandestine marriages, emphasizing the importance of virtue and love in relationships. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the setting of Montreal during a time of social and political upheaval following British conquest. The narrative begins with a description of the elegant yet somewhat chaotic home of Monsieur d'Aulnay, where Antoinette's cousin, Lucille, eagerly anticipates the arrival of Antoinette, who is a naïve heiress. As the characters discuss Antoinette's impending presence, tension emerges regarding interaction with British soldiers, illustrating the cultural clash and resentment that permeates their society. The opening chapters establish Antoinette’s innocence and emerging social awareness, foreshadowing her future challenges in a world shaped by secrecy and hidden sorrows.
