After the Deportation

This thought-provoking study explores the memory of the Deportation of 160,000 people from France during WWII. Author Philip Nord delves into the politicization of Deportation memory and the competing narratives told by different groups such as Jews, Catholics, Communists, and Gaullists. This informative book also analyzes the various ways the stories of the deportees were remembered and commemorated through literature, art, film, and ceremonies.
