Le Silence de la Mer et Autres Récits

This book features "The Silence of the Sea" and other narratives that showcase France's cultural resistance against Nazi occupation during WW2. Written by Jean Bruller under the pseudonym Vercors, it is a true masterpiece of French literature. The author, a former artist, chose his pen name as a tribute to the heroic struggles of the French partisans against the German invaders. Despite the danger he faced, he remained anonymous until the end of the war, even to those closest to him.
