Summary "Germaine Berton, die rote Jungfrau" by Yvan Goll is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The book centers around Germaine Berton, a young woman in post-World War I France, who becomes embroiled in the political turmoil and violence of the time, ultimately leading to her committing an act of assassination. The story explores themes of rebellion, societal discontent, and the quest for personal and political freedom. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to a tumultuous France grappling with the aftermath of World War I and the social upheaval that follows. The opening paints a vivid picture of the political landscape, detailing the rise of various ideologies including socialism and anarchism, and the pervasive atmosphere of unrest in Paris. We learn about Germaine's background, including her childhood in the suburbs and her formative experiences that shape her revolutionary fervor. Her personal struggles with love, loss, and existential despair lead her to a path of radicalization, culminating in her hatred for a prominent political figure, Léon Daudet, whom she perceives as emblematic of the oppressive systems in place. The opening thus sets the stage for Germaine's complex character and her tumultuous journey through love, loss, and radical thought. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
