Activists Book Description Jean Laffitte, one of the important names of the resistance against the Nazi occupation in France, the communist movement and social realist literature, takes the readers from the streets of Paris to the dungeons of the Gestapo and concentration camps in this memoir-novel written in the middle of "Resistance". As a result, the great pain and sadness on one side, resistance and hope on the other... a breathtaking narrative emerges that calls people to struggle. This book takes the reader through the dark streets of recent history, reminds us of the stories of people thrown into terrifying dungeons, and explains in all its nakedness the reality of being worked to death and starving in quarries. In the shocking novel, we also see the possibilities of turning the darkness into light and destroying the dungeons by preserving the dignity of being human and continuing the struggle until our last breath. Jean Lafitte, who lost his wife Madeleine and many of his comrades in the Nazi concentration camps, remembers the workers, young people, and underground strugglers who continue to work and resist under all circumstances. It tells the stories of militants, patriots, communists, soldiers and leaders who fought hard. One of our “our stories” meets the readers again in its revised version! “Courage is not not being afraid, but first overcoming fear. Only fools say they are not afraid. We don't need them either. We need people who agree to fight knowing the outcome. We have them too. In this way, we can move forward with confidence, victory is at the end of this road..." (From the Promotional Bulletin)
