"A collection of essays by friends of Louis Aragon in homage to the poet and the fighter, whose achievements in a period of terror and catastrophe may well give heart to men and women of good will everywhere. The selections have been made with a view of giving an example of every type of writing Aragon produced during World War II." -- online "Louis Aragon was to France such as Tom Paine was to America during the Revolution. Poet and novelist, he emerged as one of the great leaders of the French underground during the German occupation. Here is the record of what he did during those years, and what he wrote--his poems that traveled secretly to every corner of France, his stories that became legends through his conquered nation." -- online
