"L'absence et le retour" by Auguste Gilbert de Voisins is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative centers around the character Michel Duroy, who appears to be recovering from an illness while reflecting on his surroundings, memories, and identity. The text presents a blend of introspective thought and the exploration of sensory experiences as Michel grapples with his past and the current moment. The opening of the novel introduces Michel as he slowly begins to regain his senses after a period of illness. He initially fixates on an ordinary object, a cylindrical flask, using it as a gateway to understanding the world around him. His observations of the snow, flowers, and vivid memories showcase a struggle with identity and a prior tumultuous existence, which he vaguely recalls. Throughout this portion, readers witness Michel oscillate between moments of clarity and confusion, accompanied by a new awareness of his surroundings, ultimately leading to a deep question of self-identity: "Who am I?" This internal conflict sets the stage for his journey of self-discovery and the exploration of his life circumstances amidst the challenges he faces.
