In a small coastal town, the appearance of a stranded white whale on the shore becomes a momentous event. Pierre and Odile, the protagonists of this story, decide to approach the beach to discover the mystery surrounding the animal. With a style that evokes classic fables and a backdrop marked by the world war, 'Whale' is a work that condenses an ambitious theory of knowledge, exploring how truth is revealed through unveiling and how this process suspends our daily life. Originally published in 1949 by Albert Camus, this short novel is considered the masterpiece of Paul Gadenne, a French author whose personal and universal writing has been recently reevaluated.
