Résumé : "The Golden Bough" by George Gibbs is a captivating narrative set against the backdrop of World War I, exploring themes of mystery, identity, and the quest for freedom. The story follows Philip Rowland, an American soldier who has escaped from German captivity and finds himself in a secluded Swiss sanctuary. Here, he encounters Tanya Korasov, a mysterious and kind-hearted Russian woman, and Kirylo Ivanitch, a fanatical and enigmatic figure. As Rowland seeks refuge, he becomes embroiled in the strange and secretive world of his hosts, who are part of a clandestine organization with ties to Russian liberation efforts. The narrative unfolds with a series of tense interactions, revealing the complex dynamics between the characters and the underlying secrets of the sanctuary. Rowland's presence stirs suspicion and fear, particularly in Ivanitch, who is haunted by an obsession with destiny and a mysterious object referred to as "IT." The story delves into the psychological and emotional struggles of the characters, highlighting the changes brought by war and the pursuit of personal and political freedom. As Rowland navigates this world of intrigue, he must confront his own past and the enigmatic forces that surround him, ultimately seeking a path to rejoin his regiment and continue his fight for liberty.
