Summary

Andre Gide: Narrow Gate

Girls' book by the French writer Andre Gide. According to that biblical word: "Press, that you may enter at the narrow gate" (Luke XIII., 24) - this history of two girls in love and a young man was written. It is difficult to enter the heavenly palaces of eternal bliss and happiness. It is redeemed with superhuman pain and never-ending tears, as this gentle and pious virgin Alice redeemed it. It is the story of the renunciation of a girl, who - for the love of her sister - renounces earthly happiness, and yet does not achieve what she set out to achieve. It is as if the poet's pessimistic belief shines through every line, that an inexorable evil doom hovers over people forever. And yet throughout the work he promotes grace and harmony, dignity and tenderness, as if it were not about the life of one divine creature and the earthly happiness of two others. This is the Latin spirit of the French poet, who knows how to wrap the bitterest pill in a sweet shell of goodness, mercy and harmony. This work is considered by world critics to be one of the best that international literature has opened in the last twenty years.
