Deposition, 1940-1944: A Secret Diary of Life in Vichy France
Werth, Leon (French writer and art critic (1878-1955), French writer and art critic (1878-1955))
This diary is one of the most precious--and readable--pieces of testimony about life in Vichy France under Nazi occupation. Werth was a Jewish writer who left Paris in June 1940 and hid out in a small village. We see how the Occupation affected life in the countryside and finally, the Paris insurrection of August 1944.
