Les Murs ont la Parole Julien Besancon Takeuchi Bookstore/1969/Japanese/130*190*13 The May Revolution, a student movement for social change that took place in France in May 1968. This book, “The Walls Speak,” attempts to decipher the thoughts of the students from the countless graffiti (propaganda-like) written on street corners. The book is composed of a number of words such as “To be free in 1968 is to participate” and “Don't allow freedom to the enemies of freedom,” as well as photographs showing what it was like at the time. The book is a visual book. The following is from the obi. The “Student Power” is now sweeping through Japan and other countries around the world, escalating from resistance to the current power structure and system to further destruction. The numerous “graffiti” in this book are the words of students themselves, scrawled on buildings and pavements during the student revolution in France in May 1968. These outpourings of words express the causes of all student action more succinctly than any annotations or explanations.
