| Summary | "Francezka" by Molly Elliot Seawell is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds primarily in 18th century Paris and centers around Mademoiselle Francezka Capello, a young heiress with a brilliant spirit and captivating beauty. As she navigates the social intrigues and dangers of her status, she finds herself intertwined with notable characters such as Count Saxe and the ambitious young actor, Gaston Cheverny. The opening of the novel introduces the narrator, Babache, a Tatar prince with a loyal heart, who recounts his admiration for Count Saxe and his affection for Francezka. We learn about Babache's humble beginnings and how he came to serve Count Saxe after a near-death experience. The story hints at Francezka's protected upbringing under her fierce aunt, Madame Riano, and sets the stage for her budding career as a talented actress. The narrative captures a mix of whimsy and poignancy as Babache reflects on his life and the characters around him while highlighting the impending challenges that Francezka will face as she enters the world of theater and romance.
