It inspired the title of F. Scott Fitzgerald's novel, The Great Gatsby.
He died in WWI. It was his only novel.
French love it but it doesn't get much love outside France.
Fifteen-year-old François Seurel narrates the story of his relationship with seventeen-year-old Augustin Meaulnes as Meaulnes searches for his lost love. Impulsive, reckless and heroic, Meaulnes embodies the romantic ideal, the search for the unobtainable, and the mysterious world between childhood and adulthood.
It sort of reminds me of a more antiquated older and French version of The Moviegoer by Walker Percy.
