[REVIEW] Rod Kedward's La Vie en bleu
Aug. 13th, 2005 12:51 pmLa Vie en bleu, the third volume of Penguin's history of France, is a very enjoyable and academically respectable history of France from 1900 to the present. Adam Thorpe's review at The Guardian says most of what I'd like to say about this tome. I'll just add that Kedward's development of memory and representation as a trope of his analysis of France is rewarding.
