20. Andre Gide's Recovery Of The Old Adam Quite unlike Jean Cocteau in Le Livre Blanc, André gide in L Immoraliste (1902) refuses to take defeat for granted. Neither does he take triumph for granted http://www.infopt.demon.co.uk/gide.htm

Quite unlike Jean Cocteau in Le Livre Blanc L'Immoraliste (1902) refuses to take defeat for granted. Neither does he take triumph for granted, but the total impact of the novel has more in it of salvation than of despair. Cocteau and Gide of course deal with substantively different issues, the former with the problem of how an overt homosexual suffers from the oppression of homophobic culture, the latter with the drama of how a latent homosexual rediscovers his suppressed self. Gide took offence both at the general reading public who regarded his novel as an exposition of a "problem" — which prompts him to criticize "the ephemeral public" for being "greedy only for sweets and trifles" — and the critical establishment, those "certain distinguished minds" who regarded the novel merely as a case study of "a sufferer from disease." Pseudo-Freudian analysis of both works is still the rule today, and readers and critics still fail to appreciate either works as detailed studies of the homophobic context in which the homosexual finds himself.
