| Summary | "Le collier des jours: Le second rang du collier" by Judith Gautier is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around the life of two sisters, navigating their relationship with their strict governess, Mlle Honorine Huet, as they transition from the freedom of summer in Enghien back to the confines of Paris. Through a blend of childhood escapades and the poignant exploration of personal dynamics, the narrative hints at deeper themes of authority, rebellion, and the bittersweet nature of growing up. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to the sisters and their governess, Mlle Huet, whose rigid demeanor and love for escargots irritate the girls and spark their rebellious spirits. Their summer in Enghien has afforded them a sense of freedom, but as they return to Paris, the tension begins to mount. The girls engage in mischief to lighten the oppressive atmosphere of their home, leading to humorous incidents that showcase the friction between childhood playfulness and adult authority. The dynamics shift further as the governess's eccentricities and passion for the supernatural emerge, hinting at a deeper characterization that promises to complicate the sisters' lives.
