| Summary | "Le gorille: roman parisien" by Oscar Méténier is a novel written during the late 19th century. The story begins with three old friends reuniting in a Parisian lounge, delving into conversations that intertwine adventure and personal histories. Central to the narrative is Adrien de Vermont, an explorer who shares a harrowing tale of a gorilla, which acts as a backdrop for exploring themes of civilization, morality, and the complexities of human nature, juxtaposed with elements from the animal kingdom. The opening of the novel introduces readers to an elegant Parisian gathering where three characters—General Mayran, Paul de Breuilly, and Adrien de Vermont—reminisce and engage in storytelling. As Vermont recounts a dramatic account of encountering a gorilla while on an expedition in Africa, attention shifts to a troubling incident involving a young woman named Esther. This narrative serves not only as an enthralling tale of survival and danger but also hints at deeper explorations of human instincts and emotions. Additionally, the dialogue reveals the characters' personalities and sets the stage for later developments involving the protagonist's complex personal life, including themes of love, jealousy, and the shadow of past decisions that haunt their present.
