The story unfolds during the tumultuous times of the French Revolution, focusing on the main character Évariste Gamelin, a passionate painter and ardent revolutionary. The novel delves into themes of political fervor, personal sacrifice, and the burdens of ideological conviction as it portrays Gamelin's struggles in a society riddled with conflict and change. The opening of "Les Dieux ont soif" introduces Évariste Gamelin on a morning in Paris, as he participates in a revolutionary assembly held in a repurposed church. The narrative sets the tone of intense political engagement, emphasizing Gamelin's commitment to revolutionary ideals and his belief in purging society of its perceived traitors. Amidst lively discussions about governance and the current state of the Republic, Gamelin's character is deeply explored through his interactions with fellow citizens, revealing his determined yet increasingly frantic quest for civic righteousness. The initial chapters lay the groundwork for both the societal upheaval of the time and Gamelin's personal trials, which seem destined to intertwine as his loyalty to the revolution faces the harsh realities of its consequences.
