Didier Daeninckw

Cannibale

From http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1963369.Cannibale

Delphine rated it: (review of isbn 2210754119) 08/30/07
Read in July, 2007
recommends it for: everyone
Didier Daeninckx, after Meurtres pour mémoire, is tackling another part of History France would rather forget. Meurtres pour mémoire forced our country to recognize the 1961 events during which thousands of Algerians were thrown into the Seine (as ordered by Maurice Papon whose role in the Shoah is rather well-known.) Textbooks in France have changed since this novel. Will they change too after Cannibale?
