«C'était mieux avant !» is Michel Serres's manifesto, published by Editions le Pommier in paperback (96 pages, in French).
Michel Serres takes on the «Grands-Papas Ronchons» who tell younger generations that «everything was better before». Serres, who lived through that era, offers his assessment: the past was ruled by Franco, Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin and Mao, with wars, state crimes and millions of dead. An invitation to look to the future.
Work from Michel Serres's «Petite Poucette suite» series; the text was initially offered with the purchase of two of his paperback books before being published as a standalone volume.
For readers of philosophy and essays interested in Michel Serres's thought and in the critique of nostalgia.
