The narrator evokes an unhappy childhood, between a lack of affection and maternal punishments, and turns his experience into an indictment against abuse and misery. With an indignant voice, Vallès denounces the sufferings of poor childhood and claims the rights of the child.
First installment of the Jacques Vingtras trilogy. Edition in the GF Flammarion collection (number 193), with introduction and chronology by Emilien Carassus and the complete text.
Will appeal to readers of French classics and 19th-century social protest fiction.
