A fifteen-year-old boy evokes, during World War I, his passionate clandestine relationship with Marthe, a young newlywed whose husband is fighting at the front. The narrator, calculating and precocious, describes how that forbidden love, the social scandal and Marthe's pregnancy drag him from childhood into adulthood.
Originally published in 1923, this French-language edition includes the complete text of the novel.
