Death on the Installment Plan is the story of young Ferdinand's first 18 years. His life is one of hatred, of the grinding struggle of small shopkeepers to survive, of childhood sensations and fantasies - lusty, scatological, violent, but also poetic. There is a running battle with his ineffectual insurance clerk of a father, with his mother, who lives and whines around the junkshop she runs for the boys benefit; there is also the superbly funny Meanwell College in England, where the boy went briefly, a Dickensian, nightmare institution. Always there is humiliation, failure, and boredom, at least until he teams up with the "scientist" des Pereires. This inventor, con-man, incorrigible optimist - whose last project is to grow enormous potatoes by electricity - rescues him, if only temporarily; for the reader he is one of the most lovable charlatans in French literature.

"Death on the Installment Plan" was published in 1933. In this novel, Céline creates an earthy and wildly funny world among the vital characters of the French countryside and Parisian marketplaces. His language is colloquial, brutal, obsessive. His art is revolutionary. -- From publisher's description.

Cultural Writing. Fiction. New to SPD. Celine's first novel, Journey to the End of the Night and its sequel, Death on Credit, were a new kind of novel, frank about the author's thoughts and actions in a way that readers had never encountered, ultra-realistic, and full of incidents that could not possibly be true to life, characters that stretched the imagination in spite of their having obviously been drawn from life. In Death on Credit, Ferdinand Bardamu, Celine's alter ego, is a doctor in Paris treating the poor, who seldom pay him but who take every advantage of his availability. The action is not continuous but goes back in time to earlier memories and often moves into fantasy. This fascinating book by one of the greatest 20th-century novelists is an unforgettable experience for the reader. Translated and with an introduction by Ralph Manheim.

Second great novel by Louis-Ferdinand Céline, Death on credit, published in 1936, recounts the childhood of Bardamu of "journey to the edge of the night", published four years ago. After a prologue situating his present, a doctor in the thirties, the narrating hero, Ferdinand, remembers his younger days, in a middle-class environment, around 1900. He is an only son, raised in a Parisian passage between an educating, fine and intuitive grandmother, a sacrificial mother owner of a small store of lace and objects of curiosity and a violent and rascal father, employed in an insurance company. He grew awkwardly, constantly victim of the bitter reproaches of his parents, multiplies the learnings and the sentimental and professional failures, stays in an English college before seeing his destiny rock with the meeting of a wacky inventor, Leonardo da Vinci of the fumisterie scientist, to always live tragicomic adventures ... Text of the origins, marked by the seal of the maternal image, Death on credit is an initiatory journey, all in violence and emotion, where memories are accompanied by the miseries and revolts of childhood.

When it was published in 1932, this revolutionary first fiction redefined the art of the novel with its black humor, its nihilism, and its irreverent, explosive writing style, and made Louis-Ferdinand Celine one of France's--and literature's--most important 20th-century writers. The picaresque adventures of Bardamu, the sarcastic and brilliant antihero of Journey to the End of the Night move from the battlefields of World War I (complete with buffoonish officers and cowardly soldiers), to French West Africa, the United States, and back to France in a style of prose that's lyrical, hallucinatory, and hilariously scathing toward nearly everybody and everything. Yet, beneath it all one can detect a gentle core of idealism.

"The tale of a man imprisoned and reviled by his own countrymen, the Fable follows its character's decline from virulent hatred to near madness as a result of his violent frustration with the hypocrisy and banality of his fellow human beings. In part because of the story's clear link to his own case - and because of the legal and political difficulties this presented - Celine was compelled to push his famously elliptical, brilliantly vitriolic language to new and extraordinary extremes in Fable for Another Time. The resulting linguistic and stylistic innovation make this work stand out as one of the most original and revealing literary undertakings of its time."--BOOK JACKET.
