Description

Lucie Aubrac's memoir offers a gripping account of her experiences with the French Resistance during World War II. This stirring tale highlights the bravery and resilience of ordinary citizens, including women, who played a crucial role in the fight against the Gestapo.

The book provides an excellent historical introduction to the Resistance movement, shedding light on the complex web of relationships between those involved in the struggle for freedom. A taut translation enhances the narrative, making it easy to follow and understand.

Translated by Konrad Bieber with the assistance of Betsy Wing, Aubrac's story is a testament to the power of human courage and determination in the face of overwhelming adversity.
