First line
The newspapers that appeared at the time of the Liberation of Paris, in August 1944, give a fair idea what those days of childish heroism, when the body was steaming with bravura and boldness, were really like.
From the rear cover
Genet's sensual and brutal portrait of World War II France unfolds between the poles of his grief for his lover Jean, killed in the Resistance during the liberation of Paris, and his perverse attraction to the collaborator Riton. Elegiac, macabre, chimerical, it is a dark meditation on the mirror images of love and hate, sex and death.
