First of all, Littell's french is beautiful. He uses the language to it's best effect with subtlety and nuance.

This is not however an easy read - not so much for the story iself, which has it's gruesome moments, but for the protagonist's own intellectual meanderings. The line between recollection, trauma induced hallucination, nightmares and dreams is constantly blurred. In a story of this scale, keeping track of elements as fact or figment can be a challenge. Nonetheless, I enjoyed the book greatly.

If you have read Kershaw's work on Hitler and Beevor's on Stalingrad, you'll enjoy this book as something of a personal account of this dark place in human history. Perhaps the most fascinating aspect of the book, ... Read More:

I first read this in French for A level, forty years ago. I bought a copy in English, which has disappeared, and I rediscovered it in my local "tabac" about a year ago. It is a wonderful book, which every adult with average intelligence should read at least once in their lifetime.
The world from the perspective of the little prince is revealed in a way which is charming but not at all sentimental, and very thought-provoking if one allows oneself to be challenged.
I'm not saying any more than that - buy the book and discover it for yourself!
