Synopsis of Strait Is the Gate
En 'Strait Is the Gate', André Gide explora el fracaso del amor frente a la estrechez de la filosofía moral del protestantismo. La novela narra la historia de dos primos que, habiéndose amado desde la infancia, ven su devoción transformarse en un amor que los avergüenza en la presencia del otro. A través de una prosa delicada y reflexiva, Gide examina temas de sacrificio, pureza y las consecuencias de reprimir los deseos en nombre de la virtud.
