« Up until now, Claude Lanzmann was famous worldwide for having directed one of the most important films in the history of cinema: Shoah. Once a film-maker, always a film-maker. He is the author of a number of great films (Pourquoi Israël, Tsahal, Sobibor, 14 octobre 1943, 16 heures, etc.), and is director of Temps Modernes, the famous monthly review founded by Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir. Until now, he had never published his memoirs. Le lièvre de Patagonie, just published by Gallimard, is more than a simple book of memories – it is also a literary masterpiece written by one of the most important witnesses of the 20th Century. »
