Book description
A moving, hard-hitting account of the Paris attacks trial by France's leading non-fiction writer'Absolutely gripping' GUARDIAN'Magisterial' SUNDAY TELEGRAPH'Extraordinary and generous' WASHINGTON POST'A gripping testimony of terror and loss' OBSERVEROn 13 November 2015, nine attackers wearing suicide bombs killed 130 people and left hundreds wounded at sites in and around Paris in the deadliest attack on French soil since the Second World War. V13 was the code name for the much-awaited trial of those who helped to carry out these attacks. Lasting nine months, from September 2021 to June 2022, it consisted of 14 defendants, 2,400 plaintiffs, 350 lawyers and a file 53 metres high.In V13, Emmanuel Carrère follows this landmark trial from its first day to its last, taking us behind the scenes to the lawyers, survivors, family members and the defendants. He assembles, in painstaking and subtle detail, a human portrait of the crime - a study of good and evil, and the philosophical journey through the borderlands between the two.Over the course of his career, Emmanuel Carrère has reinvented non-fiction writing. In a search for truth in all its guises, he dispenses with the rules of genre, fusing passion, curiosity and a profoundly humane intellect, making him one of the most distinctive and important literary voices today.
