Pierre and Luce by Romain Rolland ~ Full Audiobook [romance]

Pierre and Luce by Romain Rolland audiobook.

Genre: romance

Set in Paris during the final year of World War I, Pierre and Luce follows two teenagers who meet by chance in the shadow of air raid sirens and long range shelling. Pierre, a sensitive and thoughtful schoolboy, has been pushed into adulthood by the constant pressure of loss and uncertainty. Luce, younger but fiercely alive, carries her own private world of art, curiosity, and stubborn hope. Drawn together in a city where tomorrow is never guaranteed, they begin to share stolen hours in museums, on streets suddenly emptied by alarms, and in quiet conversations that feel like shelter. Yet their growing closeness is not a simple escape: it forces Pierre to confront fear, duty, and the expectations of family and nation, while Luce must defend the right to tenderness and imagination in a time that treats both as luxuries. Romain Rolland writes their awakening with lyric intimacy and a clear pacifist heartbeat, asking what love can mean when history insists on destruction. The result is a brief, luminous story of youth, compassion, and the fragile courage to live fully in the present.
