Escaping from a bad marriage is challenging in any age. It was fraught with danger in 17th century New France when a runaway bride could expect censure from society and Church, even if she found an honest way of earning a living. Ad#65533;le was among the young women sent from France to marry in the young colony along the St. Lawrence River. Unusual because she was literate, Ad#65533;le is miserably matched with an abusive farmer. She is helped to escape to Quebec by a coureur-de-bois and rebuilds her life, claiming to be a widow. She has work, friends and a faithful dog but the only man to whom she can speak from the heart is promised to her friend. Ad#65533;le's imagined story of adversity,heartache and eventual happiness unfolds against the background of a seminal period in Canadian history. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
