Not surprisingly Les Beaux Draps is partly a rehash. Céline talks about the international conspiracy: 'Lenin, Warburg, Trotsky, Rothschild all have the same opinions.' He has not forgotten Léon Blum: 'Do you remember the pisspool of 36! We are still drinking it, the Popular Front! The Yid's potion!'
