| Summary | "Lourdes" by Émile Zola is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a group of pilgrims, particularly focusing on Marie de Guersaint, a young woman who is gravely ill and embarks on a pilgrimage to the miraculous site of Lourdes in search of healing. Through the journey, the narrative delves into themes of suffering, faith, and the complexities of human emotion in the face of despair. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the characters traveling on a train to Lourdes, where Marie struggles with her illness and contemplates the arduous journey ahead. Her father, M. de Guersaint, along with the compassionate Abbé Pierre Froment, supports her as she faces the realities of her condition. Other passengers, including fellow patients and the dedicated sisters attending to them, bring a tapestry of stories interwoven with suffering and hope. The scene captures not only the physical challenges of the journey but also the emotional weight carried by the characters as they collectively seek solace and perhaps miraculous intervention at the sacred site.
