| Summary | "Des soirs, des gens, des choses..." by Ernest La Jeunesse is a collection of dramatic critiques written in the early 20th century. The author reflects on his experiences and observations within the Parisian theatre scene, likely detailing the social interactions and cultural commentary of that time. The work presents various characters and events in the world of drama, focusing on the personal reflections of the author as he navigates through the vibrant life of performers, audiences, and critics. The opening of the book introduces us to a pivotal day in the author’s life, February 18, 1909, when he attends a significant event at the Académie Française. La Jeunesse describes the atmosphere, the people present, and the theatre community's vibrancy. He shares anecdotes about his unexpected assignment to critique a play at the Gymnase theatre, hinting at his ambivalence toward the role. The initial portion sets a lively backdrop against which La Jeunesse's subsequent reflections and critiques of the Parisian theatre—and its blend of personal highs and lows—will unfold, weaving a rich tapestry of artistic life during that era.
