| Summary | "In Midden-Bretagne" by Gustave Geffroy is a travelogue written in the late 19th century. The narrative explores the author's journey through the historical and picturesque landscapes of Middle Brittany, delving into the ancient ruins, legends, and notable figures from the region's past. The book offers a rich tapestry of descriptions and stories about various towns and locations, particularly focusing on the life and legacy of Françoise de Foix, the Countess of Châteaubriant, and her various abodes. At the start of the travelogue, the author begins his journey in Châteaubriant, a small town laden with historical remnants and natural beauty. The opening portion describes the town's landscape, which features remnants of ancient walls and an avenue lined with old trees, inviting readers into its serene environment. The narrative introduces Françoise de Foix, recounting her life intertwined with local legends, and sets the stage for the author's exploration of various other locations in Brittany. As he progresses in his travels, Geffroy paints vivid pictures of historical significance, local customs, and the relationship between the landscape and its storied past, creating a setting rich in both history and natural charm.
