Summary: "Le Jardin de Marrès" by Victor Snell is a reflective novel likely written in the early 20th century. The narrative unfolds around the protagonist's relationship with the enigmatic figure, Marrès, as they reconnect before the outbreak of World War I. The book explores themes of friendship, intellectual discourse, and the impending chaos of war, emphasizing the personal and philosophical implications of their conversation. In the story, the narrator recounts a serendipitous reunion with Marrès in a Paris tram just days before the war begins.
