"A Terrible and Terribly Interesting Epoch"
«
A riveting document. This intellectual, a refugee in Nice, lived and kept his diary as an observer on a volcano that he believed dormant. As a Frenchman, he was not threatened in the free zone by the Vichy police; nor did he have to fear the Italian military, protectors of the Jews, who would occupy the southeast of France. But we who know that the Germans will drive out the Italians know the outcome of this suspenseful story, which makes the reading of each page of this diary anguishing: Lucien Dreyfus, so representative of a culturally refined elite, will perish in a gas chamber.
» Serge Klarsfeld, Nazi hunter and French activist, author of Hunting the Truth
A rare, powerful, and intimate window into the life of a French Jewish family during World War II. Les mer
