Le Calvaire
''Le Calvaire'' (''Calvary'') is a novel written by the French journalist, novelist and playwright Octave Mirbeau, and published by Ollendorff in 1886. == Plot summary ==
''Le Calvaire'' is a largely autobiographical novel, in which Mirbeau romanticizes his devastating affair with a woman of dubious morals, Judith Vinmer, who appears as "Juliette Roux" in the novel.〔Jean-Michel Guignon, « Aux sources du ''Calvaire'' - Qui était Judith/Juliette ? » , ''Cahiers Octave Mirbeau'', n° 20, 2013, p. 145-152. See also Owen Morgan, (« Judith Vimmer / Juliette Roux » ), ''Cahiers Octave Mirbeau'', n° 17, 2010, p. 173-175.〕 The story is narrated in the first person by the main character, the antihero Jean Mintie, who has literary ambition and the potential to become a good writer, is incapable of overcoming his sexual obsessions. Victimized by a woman and reduced to a state of humiliated impotence, he tries to transform his suffering into an impulse to create. His redemptive passion is modeled on the Passion of Christ. In the final pages, the image of Christ is replaced by the corpses of men fallen in the battle of love.
