About this book

This book analyses Malraux's writing from his journalism in Indochina to his novels, art studies and (anti)memorialist essays. Cutting through the established dual biographical image of Malraux as a committed leftwinger and revolutionary novelist turned unconditional Gaullist and diehard anti-Communist at the Liberation, it makes a balanced assessment of Malraux as a non-ideological if elitist artist who shaped his public role as much as he shaped the existence of his heroes both novelistic and real.

Reviews

'...both the reader who has some familiarity with the work of this extraordinary writer and the specialist will find much of value here in terms of methodical, scholarly erudition and sensible, illuminating analyses.' - Peter Tame, Queen's University Belfast
