It explores Pierre's struggles with his faith and identity as he grapples with his place among the vibrant life surrounding him, particularly in the context of his brother's return to a happy household. The opening of the novel presents a tranquil March morning in Paris as Pierre prepares to visit his brother Guillaume, who has just returned home. However, Pierre is burdened with anxiety and the melancholy thought of returning to his lonely existence. The narrative shifts to Guillaume's interaction with his family, showcasing a warm reunion filled with affection and light-heartedness, particularly punctuated by the lively presence of Marie, who embodies joy and vitality. While Pierre finds himself feeling increasingly alienated amidst the familial warmth, his brother's attempt to include him in their lives is met with Pierre's internal conflict regarding his role and faith as a priest.
