Publisher's Synopsis
This collection, "L'Épouse Impertinente Par Air, Suivie Du Mari Corrupteur Et De La Femme Philosophe," presents a selection of novellas drawn from the prestigious Mercure de France and the Nouvelle Bibliothèque des Romans. Written by Stépanie Félicité Genlis and Stépanie Félicité Guilleminet, these stories offer a glimpse into the literary tastes and moral concerns of early 19th-century France.
The novellas explore themes of marriage, virtue, and societal expectations, presenting nuanced portrayals of husbands and wives navigating the complexities of love, fidelity, and personal fulfillment. Genlis and Guilleminet, both accomplished writers, deliver insightful narratives that reflect the intellectual and social currents of their time.
