The Name on the Wall
Adriana Hunter, Hervé Le Tellier
Struck by a name written on a facade of his new home, acclaimed author Herve Le Tellier embarked on a quest to recover the history of Andre Chaix, a resistance fighter, a maquisard, killed at the age of 20 in August 1944. Deftly combining historical fragments into a vivid narrative, Le Tellier invites us on a journey through one of the most troubled times: the inexhaustible Second World War. While avoiding simplistic, romantic tropes, he evokes the courage of a young man taking up arms, like many others, in what is also the story of a magnificent love with an equally impressive young woman, Simone. Made even more powerful and necessary by the current rise of fascism, The Name on the Wall gives voice to the ideals for which Chaix died and questions our deepest nature, this desire to belong to something greater than ourselves, which leads to the best and the worst.
