  Widowed at thirty, beautiful, resourceful Therese Lafirme is left alone to run her Louisiana plantation. When Therese falls in love with David Hosmer, a divorced businessman, her strong moral and religious convictions make it impossible for her to accept his marriage proposal. Her determined rejection sets the two on a tumultuous path that involves Hosmer's troubled former wife, Fanny. At Fault is set in the Post-Reconstruction rural South against a backdrop of economic devastation and simmering racial tensions. Written at the beginning of her career, it has parallels to Chopin's own life and contains characters and themes that prefigure her later works, including The Awakening.

  The Hunchback of Notre-Dame is Victor Hugo's epic tale of love, fate, and social injustice, set against the backdrop of medieval Paris and its towering cathedral. The story follows the tragic lives of Esmeralda, a beautiful Romani dancer, and Quasimodo, the deformed bell-ringer of Notre-Dame. Caught in a web of desire, cruelty, and corruption, their lives are shaped by the forces of power, prejudice, and redemption.More than a romance or historical drama, Hugo's novel is a powerful commentary on architecture, culture, and the human condition. It celebrates the beauty of the marginalized, the sanctity of compassion, and the enduring importance of preserving history — making The Hunchback of Notre-Dame both timeless and hauntingly relevant.
