Summary: "La Guerre des Boutons: Roman de ma douzième année" by Louis Pergaud is a novel written in the early 20th century. This coming-of-age tale revolves around childhood rivalry between two groups of boys from neighboring villages, Longeverne and Velrans, captured through the eyes of their leader, Lebrac. The story dives into the spirited, often mischievous adventures of these boys, illustrating themes of camaraderie, conflict, and the exuberance of youth. The opening of the novel sets the stage for a fierce rivalry between the two villages as the boys prepare for battle. Three boys, Boulot, Grangibus, and Lebrac, converse animatedly as they head towards their school in a melancholy autumn landscape. Tensions rise as they discuss a previous encounter with their rivals, the Velrans, who insulted them and declared them cowards. Motivated by a desire for revenge, Lebrac gathers his friends to confront the Velrans. The chapter introduces us to the boys’ camaraderie and the playful yet serious tone of their impending warfare, showcasing their youthful bravado and setting up the central conflict of the story.
