"What is important is that the action took place, at a time when everyone judged it to be unthinkable. If it took place, then it can happen again."- Jean-Paul SartreIt began as a dispute over males visiting female student's dormitories. Disciplinary hearings against students who had been trying to be treated as adults turned into unprecedented police brutality. The French government mobilized the riot police and the workers instinctively sided with the students. Within weeks, France was paralyzed by a wildcat, insurrectionary general strike that called for the overthrow of capitalism - the largest in the history of industrial civilization. And none of them knew what they wanted. The Start of Something New, the deeply relevant and moving new novel from James Edmonds, follows two French kids as they learn about themselves, love and the world in the tense and thrilling days of May 1968
