A Bachelor's Dream
Produced by Daniel Fromont
"A Bachelor's Dream" by Duchess is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story follows Doctor George Brudenell, a bachelor who finds himself in a predicament when he is unexpectedly burdened with caring for his sister's children while they are sent to live with him in London. As he grapples with the challenges of domestic life and his own introspective nature, he encounters Miss Alexia Boucheafen, a beautiful young governess who has a mysterious past and a growing influence on his heart. At the start of the narrative, we meet Doctor Brudenell, who is troubled by impending changes, specifically the arrival of his sister’s children whom he feels ill-equipped to care for. In a moment of seeking counsel, he visits the lively Leslie sisters, where the conversation reveals the dynamic nature of his character—a man caught between professional duties and the uncharted territory of familial responsibilities. When his sister sends her children to stay with him, he feels overwhelmed and contemplates the need for a governess, leading him to connect with Alexia Boucheafen, who will soon become central to his life. The intricate relationships, budding feelings, and unfolding drama promise a captivating exploration of love, responsibility, and the intersections of personal and professional life.
