Trapped in a loveless marriage to the elderly and sickly Colonel Delmare, French gentlewoman Indiana searches for love and passion, oblivious to the affections of the one man who truly cares about her.

Through Indiana, author George Sand explores the difficulties that arise from marriages born from social and economic expectations, and the impossible choice nineteenth century women faced between an unhappy married life or one of social condemnation.
