"Les lauriers sont coupés" by Édouard Dujardin is a novel published in 1887. This pioneering work follows Parisian student Daniel Prince through six hours of spring afternoon consciousness as he prepares to meet an actress who may not share his romantic intentions. Using an innovative stream of consciousness technique, the novel presents Prince's unmediated thoughts, daydreams, and memories directly—capturing his mind wandering from future hopes to past loves. The work would later inspire James Joyce's revolutionary approach in "Ulysses." (This is an automatically generated summary.)
