| Summary | "Le Grand Meaulnes" by Alain-Fournier is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book centers around the life of François Seurel, who recounts his adolescence marked by the arrival of Augustin Meaulnes, a mysterious and captivating new student at his boarding school. The narrative explores themes of friendship, longing, and the bittersweet nature of memory as François reflects on his youth in the idyllic yet fleeting moments shared with Meaulnes. At the start of the story, we are introduced to François and his family who live in the boarding school at Sainte-Agathe. The tale commences with a rainy November day when Meaulnes arrives unexpectedly, bringing a sense of change and excitement. François’s daily life is depicted as ordinary yet tinged with anticipation, particularly as he watches his mother prepare for the arrival of a visitor. As the two boys quickly bond and form a crucial friendship, François becomes engrossed in Meaulnes's adventures, all while a whisper of mystery hovers around Meaulnes's past and future escapades. The opening sets the stage for a story of youthful exploration that oscillates between the innocence of adolescence and the complex realm of dreams and reality.
