Rowsell is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the life of Anne de L’Enclos, known as Ninon, a prominent figure in 17th century France celebrated for her beauty, intellect, and salon culture. It examines her upbringing, relationships, and the society surrounding her, offering insight into the complexities of her character and the times she lived in.  At the start of the narrative, we learn about Ninon's birth into a family with starkly contrasting personalities—her father, a charming and adventurous man, and her mother, a pious and reserved woman. Ninon's early years are influenced greatly by her father's encouragement of independent thought and engagement with literature, setting the stage for her vibrant, rebellious spirit. As she grows, we see glimpses of her spirited nature through a series of adventures, including her masquerading as a boy and her friendship with François de la Rochefoucauld, showcasing her thirst for freedom and life's pleasures. The opening lays the foundation for a deeper exploration of her character and the vivid societal context in which she flourished.
