Translated by Adam Malik: The author of the memoirs "From a Castle in Courland to a Rectory in Nievre" adds a fictional account of his life and adventures to his literary tally. With lucidity, he continues to examine the first three quarters of the 20th century and to examine the chaos that disturbed Europe and Europeans through many minor scuffles and two dreadful world wars. Excerpt: "Like that, Philibert's church and two others were enclosed in the compound of the ghetto; the priests were commanded by the Germans to leave the quarter, but the diocese was opposed to it and gave the order to Philibert, who spoke German fluently, to discuss it with the relevant enemy authorities."
