A novel by one of France’s most celebrated authors, Louis-Ferdinand Céline, is being published Thursday, nearly 90 years after it was written. Part of a collection of lost manuscripts that are being released this year, the book has won over literary critics, despite the fact Céline is known as one of France’s most avid Nazi collaborators.
Céline’s lost manuscripts are part of an exhibition that opens Thursday at the Gallimard Gallery. It is called "Céline, Recovered Manuscripts", and includes the original hand-written pages of Guerre (War), an autobiographical novel about his experience in the World War I.
