"Dans "La mort de près", l'écrivain convoque à sa table de travail le lieutenant de 14 tel qu'il était, dans sa vareuse tachée de sang et de boue, sentant le cadavre et la chimie. Le jeune officier n'a plus peur, il ne souffre plus, ses larmes sont taries. Il parle calmement, posément, libéré du feu des souvenirs qui brûlait les pages de Ceux de 14. Il raconte de nouveau quelques moments de sa guerre, comment il a rencontré la mort et ce qu'il en a vu. Tout est clair. On y comprend ainsi, mieux que dans le récit haletant d'autrefois, le déroulement d'un combat d'infanterie au début de la Première Guerre mondiale. [...]" Michel Bernard.
