We think we know Céline. We know the scraps of a legend piously transmitted that breaks down to recompose itself, as well as the portraits arranged over published biographies. The search for truth rather than the ruses of exculpation leads to this portrait without complacency, which examines the crucial moments of an itinerary that can not be reduced to a literary career, under penalty of no longer truly understanding the writer. For he sought to act upon his time. In 1937, an enemy of the Popular Front and a supporter of an "alliance with Hitler," Céline chose to become an anti-Jewish writer. He opportunely rushes into the anti-Semitic wave, battling relentlessly against the "red peril" and the "Jewish peril". To make his pamphlets, he draws on Nazi propaganda broadcast by various pharmacies, including the Welt-Dienst. He puts ideas and slogans into music. During the Occupation, he became a new "prophet", a "pope of anti-Semitism."--Fayard translation of page 4 of cover.
