Laure Conan was the first woman novelist in French Canada and the first writer in all Canada to attempt a roman d'analyse. Her daring in writing a psychological novel was 'forgiven'; because she was a woman, and her anticipating the trend towards this type of novel was attributed to 'that intuition natural to her sex.'
