About the author
Pauline Cassin Caro was a French novelist, born Pauline Cassin in Caen in 1828 and later known as Pauline Caro. She is generally described as a Catholic writer, and she also published under the pseudonym P. Albane.
She married the philosopher Elme-Marie Caro in 1852, and some sources note that she wrote anonymously until around the 1890s. Her known works include Amour de jeune fille, Idylle nuptiale, and Le Péché de Madeleine, showing a career centered on fiction and moral or domestic themes.
For audiobook listeners, she is an interesting rediscovery: a novelist from 19th-century France whose books sit at the crossroads of literary fiction, religious sensibility, and women’s writing. On Project Gutenberg, the Spanish edition Amar es vencer appears under the name Madame P. Caro, linking that byline to Pauline Caro.
