Germinie Lacerteux (1865) is a realistic romance by Edmond and Jules de Goncourt in which the authors aim to present, as they say, a “clinic of love.” It is the fourth of six novels they wrote.
The story is that of a poor country girl who comes to Paris, and through the fault of another is launched upon a career to the dangers of which her temperament renders her peculiarly liable, and which finally brings her to death on a hospital cot. The study is based on actual observation by the authors of their own maidservant, Rose Malingre, whose double life they had never suspected. It was dramatized by Edmond de Goncourt, and produced at the Odéon in 1889.
