Title : The Gallery of Jealousies Volume 3 - Marie-Bernadette Dupuy - Book
Summary :
In the mining village of Faymoreau, in Vendée, in the 1920s, Isaure, the daughter of local sharecroppers, and Thomas, a miner whose wife, of Polish origin, has returned to live in her homeland, decide to ignore morality and their guilt: they fall in love and meet in secret under the old oak tree that sheltered their adolescent rendezvous. One Sunday, after spending the night with Thomas, Isaure is urgently called to the bedside of her mother, Lucienne. She is at her worst. Before dying, she wants to confess to her daughter the secret of her birth: Isaure's real father is none other than the local lord of the manor, the Count of Régnier, Lucienne's childhood sweetheart.
This terrible revelation shocks Isaure, who sees her family turmoil shed new light. But she still doesn't know how much this confession will change her destiny...
