En 1944, tras la liberación de Francia por los Aliados, un grupo de colaboracionistas del gobierno de Vichy, incluyendo al propio Céline, su esposa, su gato y un amigo actor, se refugian en el castillo de Sigmaringen. La novela retrata el caos, la derrota y las miserias humanas con un humor negro y un cinismo punzante, siendo una de las obras más impactantes de Louis-Ferdinand Céline.
Louis Ferdinand Auguste Destouches, better known by the pen name Louis-Ferdinand Céline, was a French novelist, polemicist, and physician. His first novel Journey to the End of the Night (1932) won the Prix Renaudot but divided critics due to the author's pessimistic depiction of the human condition and his writing style based on working-class speech. In subsequent novels such as Death on the Installment Plan (1936), Guignol's Band (1944) and Castle to Castle (1957), Céline further developed an innovative and distinctive literary style. Maurice Nadeau wrote: "What Joyce did for the English language...what the surrealists attempted to do for the French language, Céline achieved effortlessly and on a vast scale."
