Summary | "Biribi: Discipline militaire" by Georges Darien is a novel written in the late 19th century. The book explores the harsh realities of military life through the experiences of its protagonist, a soldier who finds himself lost in a world of punishment and despair within the French army. It delves into themes of authority, insubordination, and the psychological impact of military discipline, highlighting the struggles faced by those deemed misfits in a rigid system. At the start of the narrative, the main character reflects on his decision to enlist at the recruitment office, expressing mixed feelings about leaving home and a sense of impending doom regarding his military service. He interacts with his father, whose sadness echoes the protagonist’s own reluctance and internal turmoil. As he ventures into military life, he contemplates the absurdity of military expectations and the realities that await him, including the monotony of training and camaraderie with fellow soldiers. The beginning establishes a tone of somber reality and sets the stage for a profound exploration of the soldier's plight and the disillusionment that accompanies his service.
