"Confession de Minuit: Roman" by Georges Duhamel is a novel probably written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Louis Salavin, who reflects on his recent dismissal from his job at a large firm due to a bizarre incident involving his boss, M. Sureau. This initial event serves as a catalyst for a deeper exploration of Louis's psyche, his relationships, and the social dynamics surrounding him. At the start of the novel, Louis recounts his feelings of resentment and confusion about losing his position. He portrays M. Sureau as a brutish figure who plays a central role in his dismissal and reveals his complex relationship with M. Jacob, a colleague who fails to support him. Louis's inner turmoil is compounded by his reflections on his mother, who represents a stable yet suffocating force in his life, as well as the existential dread he feels about his future. The opening vividly sets up Louis's sense of isolation and hints at the psychological unraveling he may face as he navigates the world beyond the confines of his previous employment and the expectations placed upon him.
