The Beloved Child, or I Play at Being a Married Woman

L'Enfant aimé ou Je joue à être une femme mariée

In this unfinished work, a young mother, her little girl, as well as a friend of the mother's, spend the summer in a villa. The mother shares her problems – womanhood, motherhood, being married - with her friend, dresses up with the little girl, observes her body, and does a series of household tasks.
