This is the best book about World War II. A masterpiece.
Not even close to the book I'm writing about it.
This book actually made a big impression on me, haven't read it, but I saw it in the book store, and I picked it up and took a look at it, said it was translated from French, and it hit me all at once that there is literally no reason to learn another language because everything good gets translated into English anyway. It's like a filter. If it doesn't get translated into English, then it's probably not that good. Anything good that comes out, first thing they do is translate it into English, so that foreign books in English make up a kind of Criterion Collection of World Literature. Anyway, that's my experience with this book, made me realize something profound.

Wikipedia says he was American-born, but the novel was "translated from the French by Charlotte Mandell" (Source: the cover).

Actually, it made you become the meme of the stupid American.
