Louis Ferdinand Celine

Louis‑Ferdinand Céline (1894‑1961) was a 20th‑century French writer and physician, renowned for his innovative, colloquial style and his controversial political views. He gained fame with novels such as Journey to the End of the Night and Death on the Installment Plan, and is considered one of the most influential voices in French literature, albeit a polarising figure due to his wartime antisemitic pamphlets.
