«The Memory Chalet» is a collection of essays and memoirs by Tony Judt published by Penguin Press in hardback, in English.
Tony Judt evokes scenes from his life in these essays: a youthful love for a London bus route, the 1968 Paris uprisings and road trips across the United States. Each recollection becomes a reflection on history, politics or memory, and together they form a very personal journey through his past.
First hardback edition, published by Penguin Press in 2010, with the text in English; the catalogue classifies it under the category of History.
For readers of essays and memoirs, especially those who follow Tony Judt's thought and the history of the twentieth century.
