La invasión o El loco Yégof
Translated by J. Alvarez Pastor
"La invasión o El loco Yégof" by Erckmann-Chatrian is a novel published in 1862. Set in 1814 as Napoleon's armies face defeat, the story follows fierce villagers in the Vosges mountains who organize resistance against invading allied forces. Composed of farmers, brigands, and poachers, these patriotic fighters wage guerrilla warfare against Cossacks and Prussians. But betrayal lurks within their ranks—the mad Yégof will lead the resistance to its doom in this partisan tale of French heroism.
