Laurent Vogel (This file was produced from images generously made available by the Polona digital library) "Le crime du vieux Blas" by Catulle Mendès is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the lives of a Basque family, focusing on the intricate relationship between the elderly Blas, his grandson known as the little Blas, and other family members, including Cadije, their strong-willed matriarch. The narrative is steeped in themes of love, sacrifice, and the harsh realities of rural life. At the start of the book, we are introduced to the characters in a warm, rustic farm setting. The aging Blas, now 71, navigates his days with a mixture of nostalgia and responsibility, helping to care for his six-year-old grandson, whose lively spirit brings both joy and mischief. The familial dynamic is further highlighted by Cadije's authoritative presence, as she manages the household and keeps a watchful eye over both her husband and her son Antonin, preparing them for the day's work. Tension builds as Blas yearns for the companionship of the little Blas, leading to an outing that will test the boundaries of duty and familial love, culminating in a profound and tragic event that shapes the course of their lives.
