About this book
In a world shaped by the rigid expectations of early 20th-century society, "Papa Bouchard" by Molly Elliot Seawell explores the delicate balance between duty and personal freedom. At the heart of the story lies Monsieur Paul Bouchard, a man whose life has been dictated by familial obligations and the watchful eye of his sister, Céleste. As he navigates the complexities of independence and self-discovery, themes of autonomy and the quest for identity emerge. This compelling novel invites students and civic activists alike to reflect on the nuances of personal agency against societal constraints. With its rich character development and poignant narrative, "Papa Bouchard" serves as a timeless exploration of the human spirit's resilience.
