Without a Glimmer of Remorse is a fascinating dramatised fictional account of the life and times of Jules Bonnot, his 'gang' and associates and the individualist anarchists of the time, including the young Victor Serge. This story is an affectionate, fast-paced, historically accurate account of the life of the extraordinary Bonnot - worker, soldier, auto-mechanic, driver to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle - a man with a long cherished dream of absolute freedom, and the first bank-robber to use a getaway car: An anarchist who felt it his duty to lash out at bourgeois society.
