Resumen de La troisième génération devant la seconde guerre mondiale: une situation inédite
This essay focuses on ten very recent books which take as their subject matter WWII, all of which have been penned by French third-generation writers born in the 1960s and 1970s. Through this large-scale analysis, I seek to uncover what these texts have in common, and to show how they are both similar to and different from novels which originated with previous generations. Starting from some categories established by Dominique Viart, which belong to the classification of contemporary works of fiction in France, I aim to further interrogate the motivations of those writers.
