Description
"Widger's Quotes and Images from L'Abbe Constantin by Ludovic Halévy by Halévy" is a work drawn from an 1882 novel. When an American widow purchases a French village estate, the devoted Abbot Constantine fears disaster for his rural parish. The new owner—wealthy, Protestant, and formerly an actress—seems destined to corrupt the innocent community he has protected for thirty years. Yet appearances can deceive, and prejudice may give way to unexpected grace as cultural and religious divides are tested in surprising ways. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
