La Mere Bauche, an autocratic innkeeper in the Eastern Pyrenees, was excessively ambitious for her only son's future. She had adopted an orphan girl, Marie Calvert, and brought her up as a daughter of the house until she learned that her son also loved the girl. The marriage would have made impossible her dreams for Adolphe's success in life, and she sent him away for a year's travel, planning to marry Marie to an elderly habitué of the inn, Theodore Campan. Before leaving, Adolphe required a promise from Marie that she would be true to him, but at the end of the year he returned and weakly submitted to his mother. Marie, brokenhearted, allowed the marriage to her elderly suitor to take place, and when she disappeared after the ceremony, Adolphe found her dead at the foot of the cliffs from which she had plunged.

Autorenporträt
Anthony Trollope (1815 - 1882) was an English novelist of the Victorian era. Among his best-known works is a series of novels collectively known as the Chronicles of Barsetshire, which revolves around the imaginary county of Barsetshire. He also wrote novels on political, social and gender issues and other topical matters. Trollope's literary reputation dipped somewhat during the last years of his life but he had regained the esteem of critics by the mid-20th century. Trollope began writing on the numerous long train trips around Ireland he had to take to carry out his postal duties. Setting very firm goals about how much he would write each day, he eventually became one of the most prolific writers of all time. He wrote his earliest novels while working as a Post Office inspector, occasionally dipping into the "lost-letter" box for ideas.
