About this listen

Mariée, au sortir de l'adolescence, à un vieux colonel, antipathique et autoritaire, Indiana est contrainte à une routine d'outre-tombe. Tout la disposait pourtant à être sauvée par l'amour : Raymon, par qui elle se laisse séduire, possède la jeunesse et la fougue que n'a plus son mari. Indiana se trouve prise dans les turpitudes de la passion, car le désir du jeune homme se révèle bientôt un appétit plus redoutable que la brutalité de son mari repu. Oppressée dans son mariage, Indiana cherche une aventure : celle-ci achèvera de l'opprimer. "J'ai écrit Indiana avec le sentiment non raisonné, mais profond et légitime, de l'injustice et de la barbarie des lois qui régissent encore l'existence de la femme dans le mariage, dans la famille et dans la société." Paru en 1832, Indiana fut lu comme un pamphlet contre le mariage, et lança la carrière littéraire de l'auteure. Sand y expose les libérations illusoires qui enferrent les femmes dans une vie dont elles n'ont pas la clef. Son récit inverse le trajet habituel du roman : pour pouvoir être aimée, l'héroïne devra d'abord se libérer.

I absolutely loved Indiana by George Sand! What really stood out to me was Sand’s remarkable ability to bring her characters to life with such depth and complexity. She doesn’t just present their actions, but delves into the origins of their behavior, making each character feel multi-dimensional. I was particularly impressed by how Sand explores the internal struggles of her protagonists, offering nuanced psychological insight that adds layers to their personalities.

Her portrayal of the main character, Indiana, was particularly captivating. The way Sand unravels Indiana's emotional turmoil and her responses to the constraints of society and her personal relationships felt both relatable and profound. The motivations behind the characters’ choices were carefully examined, allowing me to truly understand their actions, even when they seemed perplexing at first.

The narration on Audible also enhanced the experience, bringing Sand’s rich prose to life in a way that made me feel even more connected to the story. If you’re a fan of literary works with deeply introspective characters, Indiana is definitely worth a listen.
