«Les grandes murailles» is the historical work by Lucien Bodard, published in paperback (665 pages, in French).
The book explores the history and culture of China, taking the Great Wall as its central symbol, with a narrative that spans eras, places, and characters. Bodard builds a profound account of the passage of time and human effort, far from a simple chronicle.
Work originally published by Bernard Grasset in 1987; the ISBN corresponds to the paperback edition from Le Livre de Poche.
For readers interested in the history of China and in historical non-fiction narrative.
Lucien Bodard was a Chinese-born French reporter, and writer on events in East and Southeast Asia, such as the Indochinese nations becoming independent from France, and the Vietnam War.
