| Summary |
"Le Feu sous la Cendre" by Henri Ardel is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds around Mireille, a young widow navigating life and loss after the war, accompanied by her parents and two small children. As the family relocates to the tranquil seaside town of Carantec, Mireille finds herself grappling with her painful memories and the haunting absence of her husband, Max. The opening of the novel introduces Mireille as she engages in a conversation with her mother and father at a hotel in Carantec. Although the picturesque setting offers a moment of tranquility, Mireille's thoughts are consumed by her husband's absence and the echoes of their past together. She reflects on their earlier visits to this beautiful region and the joy they once shared, revealing a profound internal conflict as she attempts to find solace in her present life while haunted by her memories. The reader is drawn into a world of emotional depth and complexity, as Mireille's interactions with her family juxtapose with her longing for her deceased husband.
