About the authors
Most of the contributors belonged to the generation marked by the First World War and were associated with the Association of Combatant Writers, an organization founded to preserve the memory of the conflict and maintain links between former soldier-writers.
Historical Context
Published in 1927, the anthology appeared during a period when French literature was still strongly influenced by the memory of the Great War and by the profound social and cultural changes that followed.
Collectibility
The book is of particular interest for its remarkable gathering of major French writers of the interwar period. Despite its condition issues, the strength of its contents gives it lasting literary and historical appeal.
