Jean Barois by Roger Martin du Gard
"Jean Barois" by Roger Martin du Gard is a novel published in 1913. It follows Jean Barois, a devout Catholic who discovers historical flaws in the Gospels and gradually loses his faith, separating from his religious wife.

As he ages and faces death, Barois confronts disillusionment with political exploitation of idealism and struggles with the terrifying
possibility of his final moments contradicting his lifelong convictions. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
