Plot Summary

Irene Girard is an ambassador's wife and used to living in luxury. After the dramatic death of her son, she feels guilty of having neglected him and feels compelled to help people in need who cross her path. One day she offers shelter to a man who is evading justice, and she ends being arrested herself. Her husband, for the sake of social propriety, arranges for a doctor to declare her insane. Irene escapes one prison to enter another, and to reflect on what sort of society she lives in. Written by Artemis-9

Quotes Irene Girard: It is just that the love we feel for those closest to us, for those who should be and maybe really are dearest to us, suddenly isn't enough. It seems too selfish, too narrow. So, that we feel the need to share it, to make our love bigger until it embraces everyone.
