"Les châteaux d'Athlin et de Dunbayne" by Anne Radcliffe is a Gothic novel written during the late 18th century. The book centers around tragedy, love, and the struggles faced by the baronne de Malcolm, as she navigates personal loss and hardship within the picturesque but treacherous Scottish highlands. Key characters include the resilient Louise, baronne de Malcolm, and her devoted daughter, Laure, as they confront the dark forces represented by the unscrupulous baron Malcolm. The opening of the novel introduces the baronne de Malcolm, who hails from a noble Swiss family and mourns the loss of her husband and children. Louise and her father, the marquis de Saint-Clair, have settled into their new life in Scotland after her marriage. However, tragedy continues as she faces the cruelty of her brother-in-law, the current baron, who seeks to undermine her and claim her inheritance. As her family’s legacy crumbles around her, the baronne’s sadness is compounded by grief and longing for her missing son, creating a vivid backdrop of despair that casts a shadow over her attempts to find solace and regain control of her situation.
