✦ Synopsis

“Jean-Christophe was born on the banks of the Rhine in Germany, the eldest son of a court musician father. From an early age, Jean-Christophe was gifted with a gift for music, and under the strict tutelage of his lazy but ambitious father. Through various encounters, sometimes with extreme poverty, Christophe becomes a successful composer. He leaves for France and makes a name for himself as a composer, but he is harshly criticized for his partisanship in the music world and his backroom dealings with musicians and critics. His criticisms of the partisanship and sentimentality of society are also contained in this work.Volume 2: Morning： Christophe as a boy. The death of his grandfather. His father's life is increasingly disrupted. The poverty was getting worse. Christophe has no choice but to go to theater rehearsals to earn money to support the family, but he is fed up with his father's extravagant spending and decides to take his father's salary for himself. And then his father died. This was the end of his boyhood.Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)”
