Le tour de la France par deux enfants by G. Bruno
"Le Tour de la France par deux enfants" by G. Bruno is a didactic novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows two young brothers, André and Julien, who embark on a courageous journey across France after the loss of their father and the upheaval caused by the war between Germany and France. The narrative aims to impart lessons about civic duty, family, and the love for one's homeland as
the brothers navigate their challenges and encounters along the way. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the two brothers as they leave their home in Phalsbourg, Lorraine, under the cover of a misty September night. Orphaned and driven by their promise to their deceased father to remain French, they bravely set out towards Marseille to find their uncle. André, the older brother, demonstrates leadership and a sense of responsibility, while the younger, fragile Julien, shows courage and an optimistic spirit. Their initial encounter at a friendly saboteur's home portrays themes of kindness, hospitality, and brotherly support that are central to their journey. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
