Monsieur Maurice is a novel written by Amelia B. Edwards. The story is set in 19th century France and revolves around a young woman named Hester, who travels to France to stay with her aunt. Hester's aunt is married to Monsieur Maurice, a wealthy and mysterious man who has a reputation for being cold and distant. Despite his reputation, Hester is drawn to him and finds herself falling in love with him. As she gets to know him better, she discovers that there is more to him than meets the eye. Monsieur Maurice has a tragic past that has left him emotionally scarred, and Hester is determined to help him heal. Along the way, she uncovers secrets about his past and must decide whether or not she is willing to risk everything to be with him. The novel is a romantic and suspenseful tale of love, loss, and redemption.My first words on waking, were to ask if he had yet come. All day long I was waiting, and watching, and listening for him, starting up at every sound, and continually running to the window. Would he be young and handsome? Or would he be old, and white-haired, and world-forgotten, like some of those Bastille prisoners I had heard my father speak of? Would his chains rattle when he walked about? I asked myself these questions, and answered them as my childish imagination prompted, a hundred times a day; and still he came not.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
