| Summary | "Madame Sans-Gêne, Tome 2" by Edmond Lepelletier, Émile Moreau, and Victorien Sardou is a historical novel likely written during the late 19th century. This work continues the story of Catherine Lefebvre, known as Madame Sans-Gêne, a character who vividly embodies the contrasts of social class and the turbulent times of the French Empire under Napoleon. Through its humorous and dramatic narrative, the book explores themes of ambition, loyalty, and the complexities of life at court. The opening of the novel introduces us to Madame Lefebvre in her lavish chambers at Saint-Cloud, where she recalls her humble beginnings as a laundress. As she is woken by her maid, we quickly see Catherine's spirited personality and her struggles to adapt to her new life as a maréchale. The narrative captures her comedic attempts to embrace the elegance required at the Imperial court while maintaining her brash, down-to-earth attitude. Simultaneously, the storyline sets the stage for the political intrigue of the Empire, with references to Napoleon's campaigns and the character dynamics at play among military and noble figures, hinting at both personal and national conflicts to unfold throughout the tale.
