Translation of Notre Avant-Guerre/Before the War (Studies in French Civilization, V. 24) - Hardcover
Robert Brasillach, a gifted writer and Nazi sympathizer, was executed by firing squad for treason in 1945. His memoir of happier times before the war offers an account of his life between the ages of 15 and 30 (from 1925-1939). Brasillach paints a vivid portrait of his student days in Paris in the late 1920s and then describes his activities as a journalist, his increasing involvement in right-wing politics, his visits to Germany, and his journey through Spain in the aftermath of the Civil War. Historical b&w photos are included. Tame is a reader in French at Queen's College-Belfast. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
