Book Summary

The Statement (1995) by Brian Moore is a gripping political thriller that delves into themes of guilt, redemption, and the complexities of historical justice. Set in the early 1990s in southern France, the novel follows Pierre Brossard, a 70-year-old former officer in the pro-fascist militia of Vichy France, who has been living in hiding for decades.

About the Author

Brian Moore (1921–1999) was a Northern Irish-born novelist and screenwriter acclaimed for his insightful explorations of religious conflict, personal identity, and moral ambiguity. Although he spent much of his later life in Canada and the United States, his early experiences in Belfast profoundly influenced his writing.

Early Life and Background

Born in Belfast, Moore was raised in a Catholic household, one of nine children in a doctor's family. He attended St. Malachy's College before serving in the British Ministry of War Transport during World War II, which took him to North Africa, Italy, and France. After the war, he emigrated to Canada in 1948, where he worked in journalism and became a Canadian citizen. His experiences in Europe and Canada provided rich material for his later novels.
