Jeffrey Jackson simply describes his latest book as “a World War II story you’ve never heard before.” It’s a story that’s being heralded for how it documents courage and inspires. It’s about love. It’s also an example of empathy.
“Paper Bullets” offers a ground-level view of history through the story of Lucy Schwob and Suzanne Malherbe. They were avant-garde artists, stepsisters and lesbian partners who risked their lives while defying the Nazis.
Jackson is going to discuss the book with Wofford College students and others participating in a Zoom discussion at 7 p.m. on Monday, Nov. 8. The event is being hosted by the LGBTerriers and the Wofford College Office of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion.
