Beschrijving uitgever

Jean Giono's Occupation Journal is a compelling literary and historical document that provides insight into life in collaborationist France during World War II, as observed by one of France's most distinguished and independent writers. Written during the Nazi occupation of France, the journal unveils the thoughts and experiences of a prominent literary figure during a particularly grim period in French history. Giono, a celebrated author and staunch pacifist throughout the 1930s—stances that led to his imprisonment both before and after the Occupation—spent the war years in Contadour, a village in Provence. There, he engaged in writing, corresponded with fellow writers, and cared for his ailing daughter. His journal captures his reflections on art and literature, his daily observations, his encounters with the Vichy regime, and his steadfast political beliefs.
