By Maurice Maeterlinck

Book Overview

""Portrait of a Lady"" is a novel written by Belgian author Maurice Maeterlinck. The story revolves around a young woman named Ariane who is trapped in a loveless marriage with a wealthy but controlling husband. Despite her attempts to break free and find happiness, she is constantly thwarted by societal expectations and the limitations placed on women in the early 20th century. As Ariane struggles to assert her independence and make her own choices, she must confront the harsh realities of life and the consequences of her actions.
