This is an automatically translated description

The novel Journey to the End of the Night, published in 1932, made Louis-Ferdinand Céline, a doctor from the Parisian suburbs and a newcomer to literature, a famous writer. However, readers and critics alike were rather shocked by how truthfully the debutant showed the miserability of life when viewed without illusions. With the frankness of an everyday man, he depicted the eternal wanderings of a pauper in a world whose delights belong to the rich. Moreover, he dared to call the concepts of love, decency, and patriotism, which are sacred to many, a sham. But no matter what pessimistic thoughts were going through the author's mind, he expressed them with unsurpassed skill.
