Summary "Summer" by Romain Rolland is a novel written in the early 20th century. This volume is the second installment of a larger work titled "The Soul Enchanted," continuing the story of the main characters, Annette and her sister Sylvie. The narrative primarily explores themes of motherhood, personal freedom, and societal expectations as it unfolds against the backdrop of a transformative summer for Annette. The opening of "Summer" introduces readers to Annette, who is in a drowsy, content state as she anticipates the arrival of her child. The serene atmosphere of her room stands in stark contrast to the bustling energy of Paris outside during the summer of 1900. As her sister Sylvie visits, they engage in a spirited dialogue about Annette’s choice to embrace motherhood without marriage, highlighting her defiance of societal norms. Annette's happiness is tenacious yet fraught with underlying tensions as she grapples with complex feelings about love, freedom, and the burdens of motherhood, setting the stage for the emotional journey that follows.
