Summary "Susi": Historiallinen romaani Perttuliyön ajalta" by Stanley John Weyman is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative unfolds against a backdrop of tension between Catholics and Huguenots in France, centering around the character Catherine, who is caught in a web of romantic and political intrigue surrounding her impending marriage to Louis de Pavannes, and the machinations of the men around her, particularly the dangerous Raoul de Mar, vidame de Bezers. The opening of the story introduces us to a sun-drenched afternoon where the three brothers, along with Catherine, are engaged in leisurely conversation until Catherine announces her intention to marry, setting off a series of humorous yet tense exchanges among the brothers. Their joviality is interrupted by the arrival of the imposing vidame, who poses a threat not only to their happiness but also foreshadows conflict, hinting at his disdain and jealousy. Catherine's concern for her fiancé's safety amid this political strife comes to the forefront as she grapples with her emotions and the realities of the tumultuous world around them, drawing the setting into a more serious tone that promises both danger and adventure.
