Musée d'art moderne Richard Anacréon

For almost a century, the First World War was a rich source of literature. For the first time, many soldiers knew how to read and write, and took advantage of the long waits at the front to put their stories down on paper. Some combatants became writers, just as some writers became combatants. In the rear, numerous accounts of civilian living conditions were also published. These different facets are presented in the exhibition through novels, poems and correspondence by Apollinaire, Barbusse, Cendrars, Colette, Dorgelès and many others.
