First published in 1932, Journey to the End of the Night was
immediately acclaimed as a masterpiece and a turning point in
French literature. Told in the first person by Celine's fictional
alter ego Bardamu, the novel is loosely based on the author's own
experiences during the First World War, in French colonial Africa,
in the USA and, later, as a young doctor in a working-class suburb
in Paris. Celine's disgust with human folly, malice, greed and the
chaotic state in which man has left society lies behind the
bitterness that distinguishes his idiosyncratic, colloquial and
visionary writing and gives it its force.
