"Les Bourgeois de Witzheim" by André Maurois is a novel written in the early 20th century. This book explores the lives and sentiments of the residents of Witzheim, a small Alsatian village, during and after World War I, reflecting on themes of identity, loyalty, and the complexities of French and German culture in the region. The story centers around the Deck family and their interactions with friends and neighbors as they navigate the political and emotional turmoil of the times. Through rich dialogue and character-driven narratives, readers are introduced to various characters such as Mr. Deck, his daughter Suzanne, and their friend Roth Sepel. The novel captures the unique blend of Alsatian culture and the conflicting feelings of belonging and allegiance, as the characters grapple with their experiences during the war, the return of French authority, and their relationships with their German neighbors. Maurois paints a vivid picture of everyday life, infused with humor and pathos, ultimately reflecting the complex nature of national identity in post-war Europe.
