Journal Title: Lublin Studies in Modern Languages and Literature - Year 2018, Vol 42, Issue 3
Abstract
The purpose of this article entitled “The snow and the war in The Snow was dirty by Georges Simenon and Warna or the weight of the snow by Paul Willems” is to show how the snow is playing a structuring role in the two studied works: first, due to its ambivalent properties, it makes the plot switch, secondly, it lets overcome the reality of the war in order to explore general questions as fate, purity and redemption.
