Les Maîtres (transl.The Masters) is the sixth installment in Georges Duhamel's Chronique des Pasquier series. The novel follows Laurent Pasquier, a research student caught between two rival academics, Professors Chalgrin and Rohner. As Laurent becomes more entrenched in their work, he discovers that the professors' outward admiration for each other masks a fierce competition that eventually boils over into a catastrophic confrontation, leading to devastating consequences for all parties involved.
