Sinopse
'Jack' by Alphonse Daudet is a novel about a mother and her son, Jack, who seek the guidance of a priest for Jack's education. Set in 1858 Paris, the mother's fashionable attire and rapid flow of words make the priest suspicious of her background, but he cannot discern her true social status. Jack, a thin and timid boy, listens to his mother with adoration, but is plagued by the first agony of separation from home.
