Les deux amis de Bourbonne by Denis Diderot
"Les deux amis de Bourbonne" by Denis Diderot is a tale written in August 1770. Two cousins raised as brothers, Olivier and Félix, share an extraordinary bond, repeatedly saving each other's lives. When both fall in love with the same woman, their friendship faces its greatest test. Félix's decision leads him into a life of crime and a death sentence, triggering a chain of tragic events that will challenge the very meaning
of loyalty and sacrifice. Diderot uses this story to question the nature of friendship itself. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
