"Mademoiselle Blanche: A Novel" by John D. Barry is a work of fiction set in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Jules Le Baron, a Parisian businessman who becomes captivated by Mademoiselle Blanche, a stunning acrobat performing at the famed Cirque Parisien. As Jules navigates his infatuation, the narrative explores themes of love, ambition, and the contrasting worlds of circus performers and the bourgeoisie. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Jules, who enjoys the thrills of the circus while reflecting on his life in Paris and his experiences abroad. After a brief interaction with a waiter and a visit to the circus, he becomes entranced by Mademoiselle Blanche's breathtaking performance and beauty. Jules's admiration quickly turns into a passionate desire to know her personally, setting the stage for a complex relationship as he handles his feelings while also confronting social expectations and personal introspection. The opening lays a foundation of intrigue and emotional depth, showing how Jules grapples with his desires against the backdrop of his societal status. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
