«Les corbeaux et les renardes» is the novel by Françoise Dorin, published by Flammarion in hardcover (436 pages, in French).
A mother gives her two daughters a single instruction: to find a rich husband by exploiting male vanity. Nadège, the elder, follows the strategy; Agathe, the younger, rejects it and chooses to build her life in freedom. The novel contrasts their destinies and leaves the reader with the question of which of the two is happier.
