The Mordant Intimacy of Cecile Desprairies's "The Propagandist"
Briefly

"Desprairies, a historian of Vichy France, focuses on a single French clan—modeled after her own family—their ill-begotten gains and misbegotten ideologies."
"The result is at once a ghost story, a tale of amour fou, a settling of accounts, and one senses, a deeply personal act of expiation."
