Purchase options and add-ons

Patrick Modiano and Louis Malle’s screenplay for the Oscar-nominated film tells a powerful story set in World War II France of a seventeen-year-old boy who allies himself with collaborators, only to fall in love with a Jewish girl
                  
This early work by the Nobel Prize winner Patrick Modiano relates the story of Lucien Lacombe: a poor boy in Nazi-occupied France who, rebuffed in his efforts to enter the Resistance for a taste of war, becomes a member of a sordid, pathetic group of Fascist collaborators who join the Gestapo in preying upon their countrymen. Lucien encounters the Horns, a Jewish family from Paris hiding in his provincial town. Inevitably, he must choose between the coarse appeal of violence and his emerging feelings of tenderness for the family’s daughter, France. Amid the excesses brought on by the impending collapse of the Nazi occupation, Lucien and France come to live out an improbable idyll. This classic is an essential read for students and film lovers alike.

3.0 out of 5 stars You Hate Them, But Keep Reading Anyway
Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2017
I didn't like Lucien. He is a despicable character with friends that are only somewhat better. Yet, the story was so well written that I wanted to keep on reading. I find this to be a rare occurrence. This is a screenplay, not a novelization of a screenplay, so if you don't like reading in that format, you won't like this book. It took me a few pages to get in rhythm, but after that, I didn't have any trouble. I received this book for free through Goodreads Giveaways.
