«Pas pleurer» is the novel by Lydie Salvayre, published by POINTS in paperback (240 pages, in French).
The work interweaves two voices: Montserrat, the author's mother, recalls her youth in the summer of 1936, during the Spanish Civil War; Georges Bernanos, a French writer, observes and narrates the violence of the conflict. Through this dialogue, Salvayre reflects on memory, identity, and the brutality of war.
Winner of the 2014 Prix Goncourt, this French edition was published by POINTS in September 2015.
Recommended for readers of literary fiction interested in historical memory and the Spanish Civil War.
