During the German advance through Belgium into France in 1940,
Captain de Reixach is shot dead by a sniper. Three witnesses,
involved with him during his lifetime in different capacities - a
distant relative, an orderly and a jockey who had an affair with
his wife - remember him and help the reader piece together the
realities behind the man and his death. A groundbreaking work, for
which Claude Simon devised a prose technique mimicking the mind's
fluid thought processes, The Flanders Road is not only a
masterpiece of stylistic innovation, but also a haunting portrayal
- based on a real-life incident - of the chaos and savagery of war.
