Description
"The Red Lily — Volume 01" by Anatole France is a novel published in 1894. It tells the story of Thérèse Martin-Bellème, a beautiful young countess trapped in a loveless marriage to an elderly government minister. She embarks on affairs with two men: Robert Le Menil, whose devotion she accepts without true love, and Dechartre, a sculptor who awakens genuine passion. When jealousy and past secrets surface, Thérèse must confront whether love can survive deception and whether her happiness can endure. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
