Book excerpt: The characters in this novella are a young couple in love, but hindered by the opposition of the girl's mother. They can only meet with the connivance of her governess, the ugly Agathe (the 'Galigai' of the novel). Loved by no one, Agathe will cooperate for a price...engagement to the young man's best friend. Utterly repulsed by the thought, yet bound inextricably to his adored friend, whose requests for help persuade him on...and confounded by his faith, which tells him how wrong he is, Nicolas must wrestle with himself.
