Gradually, as his work unfolds, Celine goes further and further in his attitude gravedigger literary standards, like the author that sinks a little more each year in the forfeiture. If he recounts events prior to travel, there is a further step in this long descent into hell, this stalemate increasingly pronounced so characteristic of the life and work of Louis-Ferdinand Céline.
Celine style really starts now. So do not be surprised that the novel is a tad more difficult to access than the travel. A book for all those who loved the trip, it still must have read and loved before thinking of attacking Death on.

And then the coverage is as usual superb, is not it?
