The Gods Are Athirst is a historical novel written by the French author Anatole France. The story is set during the French Revolution and follows the life of a young artist named �����variste Gamelin. �����variste is a passionate supporter of the Revolution and becomes involved in the radical politics of the time. He becomes a member of the Revolutionary Tribunal and participates in the executions of those deemed enemies of the Revolution. However, as the Reign of Terror intensifies, �����variste begins to question the morality of his actions and the direction of the Revolution. He falls in love with a young woman named �����lodie, who is a Royalist sympathizer, and the two struggle to reconcile their opposing views. Ultimately, �����variste is arrested and sentenced to death, and the novel ends with his execution. The Gods Are Athirst is a powerful commentary on the dangers of political extremism and the human cost of revolution.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1913 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
