1917: L'Odyssée d'un transport torpillé, Éditions Payot, (prix Fémina). Maurice Larrouy wrote this story in four weeks. The publication appeared anonymously in episodes in the "Revue de Paris" in 1917, in the middle of the world conflict. The publisher did not submit the first part to censorship, but the following part was truncated and the third part, deemed dangerous, formally prohibited, the author recounting daily life on board a ship in the form of letters or diary aboard a merchant navy of refueling.
