The Bewitched
''The Bewitched'' ((フランス語:L'Ensorcelée)) is an 1852 novel by the French writer Jules Barbey d'Aurevilly. The narrative is set in Normandy in the early 19th century. It tells the story of a young woman, married to a farmer ruined by the French Revolution, who falls in love with a priest and commits suicide when the infatuation comes to nothing. Her widowed husband then sets out to kill the priest out of jealousy.
The novel was the first in a suite of three novels which were set in Normandy and rooted in local folklore and legends. It was serialised in ''Journal l'Assemblée nationale'' in 1852 and published as a book in 1854. An English translation by Louise Collier Willcox was published in 1928.
==Reception==
Brian G. Rogers wrote in his 1967 book on Barbey d'Aurevilly: "''L'Ensorcelée'', with its real and symbolic landscapes, its well-organised plot and its regionalistic flavour, is one of Barbey d'Aurevilly's most successful novels. Largely free from the repetitions and stylistic errors of the earlier works, it inaugurates the Normandy cycle with a flourish, and, with its parallel themes of passionate and 'satanic' possession, provides a further commentary on its author's evolving attitude to his continuing preoccupations."
