| Summary | "Les casseurs de bois" by Michel Corday is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around a young woman named Popette, who is determined to marry an aviator and is deeply infatuated with the thrill of aviation culture, especially during an aviation festival. As she expresses her desire to find the right husband among the pilots, the narrative explores themes of ambition, romance, and the risks associated with flight. The opening of the novel introduces Popette as she boldly declares her intention to marry an aviator, showcasing her adventurous spirit and youthful naivety. The backdrop of an aviation festival sets the stage for her excitement as she dreams of love and adventure. Her brother Loulou shares her fascination with flying, building model airplanes and idolizing aviators. The dynamic between Popette and the various aviators she encounters, including the skilled Lucien Chatel, suggests a blend of romance and the perils associated with their extraordinary lives. The beginning establishes both her character and the thematic exploration of aspirations in a rapidly changing world filled with lighthearted ambitions and the specter of danger.
