"Jean Barois" by Roger Martin du Gard is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book explores themes of faith, modernity, and personal struggle through the experiences of its protagonist, Jean Barois, as he navigates the complexities of his health and his relationship with religion and his family. At the start of the narrative, we find ourselves in the setting of Buis-la-Dame, with Jean Barois, a sickly twelve-year-old boy, being cared for by his doctor father and grandmother. Through a series of conversations, we witness the concerns of Jean's doctor, who is deeply aware of the legacy of health issues stemming from his late wife, Jean's mother. Their discussions reflect the tension between faith and reason, as Jean begins to grapple with his illness and the significance of living life to the fullest in the face of adversity. The opening effectively establishes the intimate family dynamics and sets the stage for Jean's evolving understanding of life, illness, and spirituality as he grows older.
