"Throughout his excellent, comprehensively documented critical
biography, the best yet available in English, Hewitt contextualises
his subject expertly." Times Higher Education
Supplement
"Taking advantage of recent biographies written in French and of
newly available materials, Hewitt skilfully uses - and, at time,
abuses - the available sources. At its best, Hewitt's clear and
understandable prose takes the reader inside Céline's novel.
He points out what to look for, explains what is important, and
makes interesting connections." Choice
"Very elegantly written book, which is also an intriguing presentation of French social and political life in the closing years of the nineteenth century and the first two-thirds of the twentieth." MLR
