Summary | "Du Diable à Dieu : Histoire d'une conversion" by Adolphe Retté is a personal narrative written in the early 20th century. This introspective work chronicles the author's tumultuous journey from atheism and materialism to a profound Christian faith. As Retté unfolds his story, he reflects on themes of despair, the struggle between good and evil, and the transformative power of divine grace. At the start of the narrative, we meet Retté as he addresses a gathering of socialists in Fontainebleau, fervently preaching the virtues of scientific progress and a life free from religious superstition. However, as he engages with his audience and is confronted with their quest for truths about existence, he becomes unsettled by the limitations of his arguments. This internal conflict sets the stage for his spiritual awakening, marked by a growing sense of remorse and questioning of his long-held beliefs. The opening portion paints a vivid portrait of a soul in crisis, foreshadowing the eventual and dramatic transformation that will follow as Retté seeks redemption and meaning in Christianity.
