Louis-Ferdinand Céline

Louis-Ferdinand Céline was a French novelist known for his innovative and provocative writing style. His works, like "Journey to the End of the Night," feature candid, often raw language that explores human suffering, war, and societal corruption. Céline's distinctive use of colloquial speech and stream-of-consciousness narrative influenced modern literature, though his career was also marred by controversial political views, including support for fascism. Despite this, his literary contributions remain significant for their bold approach to storytelling and psychological insight, shaping 20th-century literary techniques and challenging traditional narrative forms.
