Abstract

S. O. S.: To the Youth of France

Mauriac, Francois | April 16, 1955 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents a nationalist appeal to the French youth by the author. Capitalist youth, working youth, student youth; French youth, you who feel with more passion than can a very tired old man the shame of France delivered over to a greedy and blind conservatism, the more blind as it is greedier, can you show our masters that we are not resigned to tolerating everything? Disarmed as you are, for them to take fright it would suffice that you cry out. Your silences reassure them. Do not lose interest in the political adventure, for through it your destiny is being determined and therefore the destiny of France.
