Summary: "The Amethyst Ring" by Anatole France is a novel written during the late 19th century. This work revolves around Madame Bergeret, who leaves her husband, M. Bergeret, to return to her mother’s house amid societal pressure and personal crises. As she navigates her newfound independence and contemplates her future, the story unfolds within the social expectations and judgments of the characters surrounding her.
