Overview

""The School for Wives"" is a compelling psychological study of marriage and moral disillusionment by the celebrated author Andre Gide. Written in the form of a private diary, the narrative follows Eveline, a young woman who begins her journal filled with romantic idealization of her fiancé, Robert. As the years pass and the reality of their union unfolds, the entries shift from adoration to a piercingly honest critique of her husband's character and the superficiality of their social world. Gide masterfully captures the subtle erosion of intimacy and the discovery of intellectual and moral incompatibility. Through Eveline's introspective voice, the work examines the tension between public perception and private reality, making ""The School for Wives"" a profound exploration of the human heart and the complexities of long-term commitment. This classic of early twentieth-century literature remains a poignant reflection on individual integrity and the masks people wear within the confines of domestic life.
