Velike porodice
Big families is Drion's best novel. In it, the writer, in a very vivid and striking way, gave a cross-section of French society after the First World War: some characters of the novel become like living witnesses of their time.
The Great Families, winner of the Goncourt Prize, is one of the most famous novels of post-war French literature. Unanimously acclaimed by critics upon publication, translated worldwide and brought to screens with great success, this great social novel in the Balzac and Tolstoy tradition offers a relentless fresco of the political and financial circles between the two world wars. There is no doubt that this study of the human condition, through those whose power directs collective destinies, illustrates and helps to understand the origins of the tragedies of modern society.
