Rod Kedward brings to life the great, and often terrible, dramas of modern France - the two cataclysmic wars, the Algerian disaster, the student and worker revolt of 1968 - but also explores the special worlds of the workplace, immigration, minorities, the role of women, and the politics of everyday life and collective memory. La Vie en Bleu is a history of people and events that tells a multitude of stories, some impressive, some shameful1 and many that starkly2 divide the French among themselves.
除了美食、电影、文学、时尚，关于法国，我们还有很多不曾了解的。为什么心理分析的书籍仍是法国畅销书排行榜的常客？为什么法国镇压阿尔及利亚的历史仍是他们社会的禁忌？法国在二次大战的表现，为何那么懦弱？本书以一九三一、一九六九年为分界，将二十世纪法国史分成三段来讲述，以其易读、完整、深入而广受读者好评。
