The author tackles a problem which may prove very up to date—a maladjusted adolescent whose parents can no longer cope—and proposes a unique solution: the youth is to be sent to a singular reformatory, a place in the forest attended by an old man. Through work and effort, the adolescent’s attitude will change and he will value aspects of life which he gave no thought to beforehand, such as the mere fact of chatting with the old man. By means of respect and affection, the old man will produce a change in this youth. Furthermore, the work is replete with intrigue from start to finish.
