Le Grand Meaulnes. A Book for Reading in French

Henri Alban Fournier (1886–1914), writing under the pseudonym Alain-Fournier, gained worldwide fame thanks to his only completed novel "Le Grand Meaulnes," written in 1913, a year before his death. The author's memories of childhood, school, games, and the thoughts of adolescents are combined with a dynamic plot and romantic intrigue, along with a realistic portrayal of provincial French life.
