Summary "Le règne de la bête" by Adolphe Retté is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative unfolds in a politically charged environment, exploring themes such as corruption, anarchism, and disillusionment, primarily through the characters Georges Legranpan, a minister, and Auguste Mandrillat, a wealthy politician struggling with the political tides of the time. The book delves into the moral decay and chaotic dynamics of early 20th-century French society. The opening of the novel introduces the reader to an intense political dialogue between Georges Legranpan and Auguste Mandrillat. As tensions rise, Legranpan chastises Mandrillat for his son's growing involvement in socialism and revolutionary activities, which threatens Mandrillat’s political standing. The father-son dynamics between Mandrillat and his son Charles, who aspires to an anarchist path, further complicate the situation as Mandrillat grapples with his loss of control over his family and societal values. These initial exchanges set the tone for a story deeply entrenched in the struggles and moral dilemmas faced by individuals in a turbulent political landscape.
