The volume looks at the renewal of interest in, and extensive re-evaluation of, the wartime occupation of France by the Nazis. The author places the phenomenon in its literary and historical context, revealing how, until 1970 a collective and predominantly Gaullist myth of the resistance was able to establish itself in France. This myth was subsequently undermined as the author shows in his survey of the works of prominent writers such as Francois Mauriac, Marcel Ayme, Alain Robbe-Grillet and Claude Simon. He also looks at some younger writers in greater detail.
