The White Rocks is a novel written by Edouard Rod and published in 1896. The story takes place in a small Swiss village where a young woman named Suzanne falls in love with a man named Pierre. However, their love is forbidden by Suzanne's father, who wants her to marry a wealthy man instead. As the story progresses, Pierre is forced to leave the village and Suzanne is left heartbroken. She eventually marries the wealthy man her father chose for her, but she is unable to forget about Pierre. Years later, Pierre returns to the village and reignites his relationship with Suzanne. However, their love is once again threatened by societal expectations and the disapproval of Suzanne's husband. The novel explores themes of love, societal expectations, and the conflict between personal desires and familial obligations.
