"Jean-Christophe II" by Romain Rolland is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story continues the journey of the protagonist, Christophe, who is deeply immersed in his passion for music while navigating the complex relationships within his family, particularly amidst struggles with poverty and his father's alcoholism. This novel explores themes of ambition, artistic integrity, and familial conflict through the eyes of a young composer grappling with the burdens of his circumstances. The opening of the novel establishes that Christophe is nearly eleven years old and evolving musically under the mentorship of Florian Holzer. As he delves into the world of harmony, he confronts the often stifling restrictions imposed by older generations and societal norms surrounding music. Throughout this period, Christophe also contends with his family's increasing financial troubles, the deteriorating health of his grandfather, and the frustrating coexistence with his father, Melchior, who is succumbing to addiction. The narrative unfolds with Christophe’s burgeoning awareness of the disparity between his artistic aspirations and the harsh realities of his life, setting the stage for an emotional and turbulent journey ahead.
