Mariée, au sortir de l'adolescence, à un vieux colonel, antipathique et autoritaire, Indiana est contrainte à une routine d'outre-tombe. Tout la disposait pourtant à être sauvée par l'amour : Raymon, par qui elle se laisse séduire, possède la jeunesse et la fougue que n'a plus son mari. Indiana se trouve prise dans les turpitudes de la passion, car le désir du jeune homme se révèle bientôt un appétit plus redoutable que la brutalité de son mari repu. Oppressée dans son mariage, Indiana cherche une aventure.

The first novel that George Sand wrote without a collaborator, this is not only a vivid romance, but also an impassioned plea for change in the inequitable French marriage laws of the time, and for a new view of women. It tells the story of a beautiful and innocent young woman, married at sixteen to a much older man. She falls in love with her handsome, frivolous neighbor, but discovers too late that his love is quite different from her own.

This is one of George Sand's late great rural novels, dealing with life among the provincial poor, where customs were already changing when she wrote it.
