The book centers on the lives of Marie-Françoise-Catherine de Beauvau, marquise de Boufflers, and her son, who lived during a time of significant sociopolitical change in Lorraine following the death of Stanislas. It offers insights into their relationships, societal roles, and the cultural environment of the 18th century, particularly highlighting the decline of the Lorraine court. At the start of the narrative, the author reflects on the impact of Stanislas's death on Lorraine, illustrating the shift from a vibrant court to a dull provincial existence. Key characters, such as the marquise de Boufflers, her son, and courtiers like the comte de Tressan and maréchal de Bercheny, are depicted as they navigate their changed lives. The marquise faces emotional turmoil over loss, while others leave for Paris, seeking new opportunities and friendships in the wake of a beloved monarch's demise. This opening portion sets the stage for exploring themes of identity, loss, and social dynamics within a historical context.
