Clérambault

Clérambault is Romain Rolland's powerful post-World War I novel about conscience, isolation, and moral resistance. Through the story of Jean Clérambault-an intellectual who refuses to surrender his humanity to nationalist fervor-Rolland delivers a profound meditation on dissent, truth, and the personal cost of integrity.

Translated into English in 1921 and presented here in a carefully restored digital edition, this work remains essential reading for those interested in pacifist literature, European modernism, and the ethical challenges of war. Clérambault speaks quietly-but with lasting force.
