Mon frère Yves by Pierre Loti
"Mon frère Yves" by Pierre Loti is a semi-autobiographical novel published in 1883. It chronicles the intense friendship between a French naval officer and Yves Kermadec, a hard-drinking Breton sailor, during the 1870s and 80s. Through their adventures—gambling, brawling, and roaming the Breton countryside—the story explores the bonds of loyalty tested by Yves's alcoholism and the narrator's sworn promise to protect his friend forever. The novel vividly portrays Breton seafaring life both
aboard ship and ashore. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
