It vividly described what it was like for soldiers to return home from an unpopular war in a faraway place. The book received a handful of reviews, it was never reprinted, it disappeared from view. With no outcome to the war in sight, its power to disturb was too much to bear.Through David Belloss translation, this lost classic has been rediscovered. Spare, forceful, and moving, it describes a week in the lives of a sergeant, a corporal, and an infantryman, each home on leave in Paris. What these soldiers have to say cant be heard, cant even be spoken; they find themselves strangers in their own city, unmoored from their lives. Full of sympathy and feeling, informed by the many hours Daniel Anselme spent talking to conscripts in Paris, On Leave is a timeless evocation of what the history books can never record: the shame and the terror felt by men returning home from war....4200319On Leave167192https://www.gandhi.com.mx/on-leave-9780865478961/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/2789284/6a3e1c3e-a94f-43f3-a967-aee2896c79a8.jpg?v=638384454590900000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20149780865478961_W3siaWQiOiJiZDczMzA0ZC02ZDQ2LTRjZjItOGQ0OC0xMTVkOTJhMDg1MGEiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjIwNCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjI3LCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjE3NywiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjQtMTItMDFUMDA6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9780865478961_A long-lost French novel in which three soldiers return home from an unpopular, unspeakable warWhen On Leave was published in Paris in 1957, as Frances engagement in Algeria became ever more bloody, it told people things they did not want to hear.
