Life. Maupassant G.

France of 1819. The young Jeanne, brought up in the monastery, dreams of happiness. She should go with her parents to their castle by the sea, where she will spend the whole summer and, possibly, it, on the coast, will meet the only one that is intended for her with fate. Parents bless the marriage, and as a dowry they will give Jeanne the very castle in which a serene family life will begin. But, alas, real life is little like the rainbow dreams of an inexperienced girl. One of the most famous novels of the classic of French literature Guy de Maupassant is dedicated to the tragic discrepancy of expectations with reality.
