"La porte des rêves" by Marcel Schwob is a collection of stories written in the late 19th century. The work combines fantasy and symbolism, exploring themes of dreams, nature, and the intangible connections between lives through various characters and narratives. The opening of this collection introduces a tumultuous maritime scene where a group of men aboard a ship is navigating through stormy waters. The ship is laden with the aftermath of a recent battle, and the crew, appearing both despondent and contemplative, engages in a somber division of loot. This scene unfolds into a moment where they encounter a mysterious elderly man playing the flute, whose music evokes profound emotions and reflections on life, death, and the futility of their violent existence. The haunting melody becomes a catalyst for the crew's introspection, ultimately leading to a powerful moment of realization about the lost potential for creation amidst their destructive lives.

Reading ease score: 78.4 (7th grade). Fairly easy to read.
