Two years after his wife's death, Germain is encouraged to move on
and find a new woman and home to accommodate his three growing
children. He travels to visit a single woman who is eager to start
a new family. Following his daughter's death, Pere Maurice has
provided constant support for his son-in-law Germain. But after two
years, he pushes him to find a new wife. Germain is a young man
with three children in need of a mother. Maurice sends him to visit
the daughter of a friend, who is also widowed and interested in
remarrying. Germain reluctantly agrees, taking his son and the
teenager Mary, who is seeking employment. The trip proves to be an
eye-opening experience for the duo who form an unexpected bond.
Similar to Sand's previous work, Indiana, The Devil's Pool examines
the obligations of marriage. The story illustrates how duty and
perception take priority over love and kindness. It's a dichotomy
that continues to present itself, regardless of one's social or
political status. With an eye-catching new cover, and
professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Devil's Pool
is both modern and readable.
