First edition.
Presentation copy signed by Aragon to Jacques Faizant.
The National Writers' Committee is an organ of the literary resistance, an emanation of the National Writers' Front, close to the French Communist Party.
Led by Aragon, the committee brings together many great French authors.
This publication in the aftermath of the war aims, through the example of an “ordinary” French village, at the abuses committed by the Nazis. Thus, Plomion in Aisne, where on August 31, 1944 fourteen inhabitants aged 16 to 72 were shot by the SS.
The photos of the victims are accompanied by a text by Henry Malherbe and a poem by Paul Claudel. Amusing send-off from one of the most fervent communist writers to the one who was on the front page of Le Figaro for decades.
