"This volume fulfills an important need, making available in English a representative selection of Mauriac's insightful, multifaceted, and always gripping observations about events that occurred during a critical period of twentieth-century history. Mauriac's highly individualized essays run a rich gamut always leavened by deep humanity and spirituality, however polemical and controversial the topic, and offer an exceptional means of entering into the spirit of difficult and constantly evolving times from a perspective that is not parochially French but always universal. Bracher's detailed presentations and intelligent analyses are much more than a scholarly accompaniment; indeed, many of them can be read on their own. They are an indispensable complement to finely wrought translations of Mauriac's essays and editorials, guiding the reader on an informative and holistic journey through thirty-two years of turbulent and momentous human events, a journey that cannot fail to stimulate, challenge, and enrich us."―Jean-Pierre Cauvin
"This is a stimulating, informed study of one of France's greatest and most widely read editorialists that will engage its readers with the ethical issues that Mauriac wrestled with, those eternal issues of politics and morality that continue to test, perplex, and agonize us today."
- Patrick Henry, Whitman College, editor of Jewish Resistance Against the Nazis, author of We Only Know Men, both published by CUA Press"―
