Anthropologist Germaine Tillion, a member of the French Resistance and deported to a concentration camp, was still working on the eve of her death. Back from that horror, she decided to laugh until the last minute, awakening around her a group of friendship, mutual help and joy that lasted until she was 101 years old.

A book with valuable lessons we should incorporate to our life's luggage.
