About the book
Les voyageurs de l'impériale is a novel by Louis Aragon, first published in an English translation by Hannah Josephson in 1941 and in the original French in 1946, as the third volume of his Le Monde Réel cycle. The novel reflects Aragon's observations of French society's attitudes toward the Spanish Civil War and the prelude to World War II. Conceived as a counterpoint to the preceding volume, Les Beaux Quartiers, which promotes a model of socially engaged behavior rooted in Aragon's leftist convictions, Les voyageurs de l'impériale critiques voluntary withdrawal from politics in favor of pursuing short-term personal goals.
