A very handsome and rare set of this trilogy, the first volume of which—winner of the 1948 Prix Goncourt—was masterfully adapted for the screen ten years later by Denys de La Patellière, with an illustrious cast including Jean Gabin, Pierre Brasseur, Bernard Blier and Jean Desailly, featuring dialogue by Michel Audiard.
