Jean Sulivan's archives

At the beginning of 2011, Jean Sulivan's archives were deposited by Édith Delos, legatee of Jean Sulivan, at the Institut mémoires de l'édition contemporaine. Eternity, My Beloved tells the story of a rebel priest, Jerome Strozzi, who falls between the cracks of both church and state during the German occupation of Paris during World War II. Befriending prostitutes, petty thieves, and con-men, he becomes the unofficial pastor of the notorious Pigalle district. Told by a skeptical narrator who is himself searching for Strozzi's secret, this contemporary lyric masterpiece becomes a sustained meditation on love and freedom
