"Two Banks of the Seine" (Les Deux Rives) by Fernand Vandérem is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative explores the contrasting lives of different social classes in Paris, particularly focusing on characters from the Latin Quarter and the upper bourgeoisie. Through the lens of humor and realism, Vandérem paints a vivid picture of Parisian society, emphasizing character development and human relationships. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Mme. Chambannes, who arrives at the Collège de France in pursuit of a lecture on Egyptology. Shortly after, she meets her friend, Mme. de Marquesse, and they engage in lighthearted banter about social status and acquaintance with prominent figures in Paris. The scene then shifts to the anxious and introspective Mlle. Thérèse Raindal, daughter of M. Raindal, who is caught up in her concerns about meeting potential suitors at an upcoming dance. The opening portion sets up an intricate tableau of Parisian life, filled with the hopes and anxieties of its characters, all while hinting at deeper social commentary.
