"Marie Antoinette and Her Son" by L. Mühlbach is a historical novel set in the late 19th century, centered around the life of Marie Antoinette during her tumultuous reign as Queen of France. The narrative paints a vivid picture of her relationship with the people of Paris, her aspirations as a mother, and the mounting tensions within the royal court as they face criticism and scorn from the populace. The story unfolds against the backdrop of a society on the brink of revolution. The opening portion of the novel introduces readers to Marie Antoinette on August 13, 1785, as she makes a significant public appearance in Paris alongside her children. The queen receives a warm reception from her subjects, who cheer for her beauty and maternal grace. However, the narrative quickly contrasts this celebratory atmosphere with underlying discontent, highlighted by a tense encounter with a cobbler who questions her disconnect from the working class. This crucial moment lays the groundwork for exploring themes of public opinion and the tension between the monarchy and the populace, setting the stage for the queen's struggles amid the impending revolution.
