Title : The Day Does Not Rise for Us - Robert Merle - book

Summary :

There are two kinds of submarines: large and small. The latter are attack submarines. The largest are SSBNs: nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarines. Thus, the novelist of Fortune de France begins his story of an ordinary patrol aboard one of these vessels, following in the footsteps of a young military doctor, among these sailors for whom, for weeks on end, the day does not dawn. Their missions, their skills, their language, the unique human problems that confront them in their strange profession: nothing escapes his passionate, warm gaze, eager to see and understand everything. Rigorous and precise as a report, this chronicle is captivating from start to finish. Because these men are like us, they have their own character, their worries, their moments of joy or their backache...
And at the same time, they live with their finger on the trigger, ready at any moment to unleash nuclear fire.
