4.0

powerful narrative of extreme violence and torture in the name of a cause; even if you don't agree with what the FLN did, you can appreciate the fact that there is not a gratuitous word in this book.

5.0

Brutal read that makes you rethink the tradition of "the rights of man" in French history. As Alleg shows, the Algerian War exposes this traditional narrative as a lie.
