Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Aulnay Tower
Directly beneath the Tower rose the turrets of the chateau, connected with the church by an arched gallery through which the marquis - especially now that he was more or less an invalid - went to mass in stormy weather. The cottages of the village folk clustered close about his gates; the village interests crowded volubly and affectionately into his home, as if all distances and barriers between them were spanned by innumerable unseen arches, making church, chateau, and village one.
