Summary: "Oberman" by Etienne Pivert de Senancour is a novel written in the early 19th century. The book revolves around the introspective letters of the protagonist, who expresses his thoughts and feelings about existence, nature, and societal constraints. The narrative delves deeply into the character's internal struggles and philosophical reflections, making it both a personal journey and a broader commentary on the human condition. At the start of the novel, the protagonist is introduced through a series of letters addressed to a close friend, where he shares his experiences and contemplations after leaving Lyon for a new life in Geneva. He grapples with thoughts of freedom, identity, and the weight of societal expectations, reflecting on his desire to escape from the mundane and the constraints imposed upon him. His initial reluctance to share his decision highlights his internal conflict about the future, while the descriptions of his surroundings convey a deep connection to nature as he seeks solace in the beautiful Swiss landscapes.
