Genesis of The Camp of the Saints

Controversial and long hard to obtain, Jean Raspail’s novel The Camp of the Saints (1973) has been touted by some as a prescient description of the politics of mass migration and attacked by others for its presentation of migrants. On September 16, a new translation with an introduction by Nathan Pinkoski will appear from Vauban Books. Matthew Schmitz and Julia Yost interview Nathan about the book’s strengths, weaknesses, and contemporary relevance. For more like this, subscribe at patreon.com/againstthepod.
