With The Animals by Noëlle Revaz

The novel centers around Paul, a brutish and unrefined farmer, whose life is dominated by his work on the farm and his oppressive treatment of his wife and children.

The narrative delves into themes of power, isolation, and the primal instincts that drive human behavior, offering a stark and unflinching look at the complexities of life in a remote, unforgiving environment.
