Les Parisiennes

2 August, 2016
Author: Anne Sebba
Genre: History
Category: New Books

Anne Sebba takes readers on an absorbing exploration of how Parisian women lived during and after the Nazi Occupation, examining the choices they had to make in order to survive, both big and small. Writing with an even hand, Sebba refrains from passing any judgement on her subjects, be they collaborators or resisters, ordinary women or icons of their time. 'Les Parisiennes' is a meticulous and sympathetic social study of the era which proves once again Sebba's eye for the most compelling of historical details that bring the past vividly to life.
