Why read it?

1 author picked Journal à quatre mains as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

A funny and moving account of life in occupied Paris by two young sisters, one sensible and studious, the other fun-loving. Written in diary form by each sister in turn, hence the ‘four hands’. Some signs of touching up with hindsight before publication in 1962. There is an English translation, ‘Diary in duo’ (1965) but currently out of print.

From Robert's list on France in the Second World War.
