Description

In this classic French novel, a humble village priest, Abbé Constantin, grapples with the arrival of two wealthy American women who buy a nearby estate. Despite their differences in background and wealth, the women's kindness and generosity begin to bridge the gap between their worlds. The novel explores themes of class, charity, and the complexities of human relationships in a rapidly changing society.

Ludovic Halevy (1834-1908) was a French author and playwright. His l'Abbe Constantin, which received a prize from l'Academie Francaise, is "very delicate, earnest, and at the same time ironical, a most entrancing family story.".
