Tante is a novel written by Anne Douglas Sedgwick, first published in 1912. The story is set in the late 1800s and early 1900s and follows the life of a young girl named Nancy who is sent to live with her aunt, or Tante in French, in Paris after the death of her mother. Nancy's aunt is a wealthy and influential woman who is heavily involved in the Parisian social scene. She takes Nancy under her wing and introduces her to a world of art, culture, and luxury. However, as Nancy grows older, she begins to see the darker side of her aunt's world and the manipulative and selfish nature of those around her.As Nancy navigates her way through Parisian society, she falls in love with a young artist named Guy, who is also struggling to find his place in the world. Together they must navigate the complexities of love, class, and societal expectations.Tante is a beautifully written novel that explores the themes of love, loss, and identity. Sedgwick's vivid descriptions of Parisian life and her nuanced characterizations make this a timeless classic of early 20th-century literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
