«Les russkoffs» is François Cavanna's novel about his captivity in the Second World War, published in paperback by P. Belfond (373 pages).
The starting point is Cavanna's birthday in September 1939, when he turns sixteen just as the war breaks out. Cavanna reconstructs from that youthful memory his experience as a French prisoner of war in Germany: forced labour, life among the captives and the daily relationship with the guards, without heroes or martyrs.
It won the Prix Interallié in 1979, the year of its first edition by P. Belfond.
Suitable for those who enjoy personal accounts of the Second World War told from the experience of a French prisoner.
François Cavanna was a French author and satirical newspaper editor.
