Indiana (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781169300125)

""Indiana"" is a novel written by French author George Sand, originally published in 1832. The story follows the life of Indiana, a young woman from a wealthy family who marries a man named Colonel Delmare. However, Indiana soon realizes that her marriage is not what she had hoped for, as her husband is unfaithful and emotionally distant. She falls in love with a man named Raymon, who is also married, and the two begin an affair. As their relationship becomes more complicated, Indiana must confront her own desires and make difficult decisions about her future. The novel explores themes of love, marriage, gender roles, and societal expectations. Sand's writing is known for its vivid descriptions of nature and its critique of the limitations placed on women in 19th century French society. ""Indiana"" is considered a classic of French literature and an important work in the development of the feminist literary tradition.""I was just going to do it, monsieur; but I saw a woman meet him. At that moment I said to myself: 'Perhaps it's monsieur and madame, who have taken a fancy to walk a bit before daybreak;' and I went back to bed. But this morning I heard Lelievre talking about a thief whose tracks he had seen in the park, and I said to myself: 'There's something under this.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
