Summary "Kummastuneet kasvot" by Anna de Noailles is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a young nun, who is filled with youthful passion and curiosity, navigating her emotions and experiences within the confines of a convent. As she grapples with her faith, desires, and the enigmatic presence of a young painter, readers are drawn into her internal conflict between spiritual devotion and romantic longing. The opening of the novel introduces us to the young nun's reflections over several entries in her journal as she resides in a peaceful convent setting. She experiences a profound connection with the beauty of nature, the innocence of her longing, and the complex feelings of purity and desire stirred by interactions with other nuns, particularly Sister Catherine, and her growing fascination with Julien, a visiting young man. The juxtaposition of her faith and the burgeoning emotions toward Julien reveals her struggle to reconcile her spiritual commitments with the awakening of her desires, setting the stage for a poignant exploration of love, faith, and personal identity throughout the narrative.
