Reading Mauprat | Alexandria
Read Mauprat by George Sand. Taming a feral aristocrat through love and reason drives this subversive tale of transformation in George Sand's Mauprat. When a highborn savage meets his educated cousin, their unlikely romance challenges 19th-century beliefs about nature versus nurture. The novel daringly suggests that even the most "irredeemable" can evolve through compassion - a radical view that still confronts modern assumptions about human potential.
