Summary "Amours fragiles" by Victor Cherbuliez is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story introduces the marquis de Miraval, an insightful and somewhat cynical character, alongside his niece, Mme de Penneville, who is troubled by the potential romantic entanglement of her son, Horace, with a mysterious woman named Mme Corneuil. The novel dives into themes of love, social dynamics, and the complexities of personal relationships, particularly highlighting the contrast between public personas and private desires. The opening of "Amours fragiles" sets the stage for a tangled web of emotions. It begins with a letter from Mme de Penneville expressing her concerns about her health and her nephew's interest in a woman she deems unworthy, hinting at a deeper family drama. The marquis, while reflecting on his own past and the nature of love, shows genuine concern for his niece's apprehensions and her son's well-being. The narrative quickly reveals the history and circumstances surrounding Mme Corneuil, who is portrayed as both intriguing and potentially dangerous, setting the stage for the conflicts and romantic entanglements to unfold.
