Summary: "La maison en ordre : comment un révolutionnaire devint royaliste" by Adolphe Retté is a memoir written in the early 20th century. The work chronicles the author's personal evolution from a fervent revolutionary to a staunch royalist, reflecting on the socio-political turmoil in France during his lifetime. The narrative explores themes of faith, patriotism, and the search for order amidst chaos, offering insights into the author's beliefs about monarchy as a remedy for societal issues. The opening of the memoir introduces readers to a young Retté in 1869, at the age of six, reflecting on his formative childhood experiences surrounded by books and the influence of his intellectual grandfather. As he becomes enthralled by the stories of Napoleon, particularly through a historical text, his imagination takes flight, foreshadowing his later passion for history and patriotism. The narrative poignantly captures the atmosphere of his close-knit family life, contrasting his grandfather's skepticism towards politics with his grandmother's piety, setting the stage for the internal conflicts and ideological shifts that follow in Retté's development.
