Les deux nigauds by comtesse de Sophie Ségur

"Les deux nigauds" by comtesse de Sophie Ségur is a novel published in 1863. Two provincial children, Innocent and Simplicie, dream of leaving their quiet Breton countryside for the glamorous life of Paris. When their exasperated father finally grants their wish, the siblings quickly discover that city life is far from what they imagined. Their country manners and poor taste make them targets of mockery, while their aunt proves violent and their new surroundings hostile. This cautionary tale explores themes of parental education and the perils of indulging children's whims. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
