| Summary | "Louise et Barnavaux" by Pierre Mille is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story opens with a group of colonial infantry soldiers, including the character Barnavaux, who are enjoying a night out after re-enlisting. The narrative explores themes of camaraderie, personal struggle, and the often harsh realities of colonial life, hinting at tensions that will unfold among the characters as the plot progresses. The opening of the book introduces us to Barnavaux and his companions, who, after a day of celebration in Hanoï, decide to end the evening at the house of a woman named Ti-Ka. As they make their way there on horseback, they encounter another group of American sailors led by a man named Plévech, a former compatriot who has defected to their ranks. This unexpected meeting foreshadows conflicts about loyalty and identity, especially when Plévech reveals his inner turmoil over his actions and the personal consequences of his choices. The atmosphere is charged with camaraderie as well as unspoken tensions, setting a compelling stage for the unfolding drama centered around the lives of these men in a colonial setting.
