Echo in the Orchard and a Prussian Suitor
A seven year old girl recalls a poignant day with an eleven year old friend and echoes of Echo and a river memory. In Strasburg after the Franco-Prussian war Marie Archaimbault faces a German lieutenant Karl Eichmann, whose tale of brother Alphonse’s death and a proposed marriage tests her loyalties. She rejects prejudice, yielding at last to love as her aunt and the abbe witness their union.
