Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
From Library JournalOn the heels of a biography by Kenneth Murphy ( Man's Fate, Man's Hope: The Life of Andre Malraux , LJ 7/91) recently postponed because of legal complications comes this demanding study of the French writer's thought. Tannery traces Malraux's 'long and painful' spiritual quest through the realms of revolution, literature, and art, examining both juvenilia and such major works as the novel Man's Fate (1934). Unfortunately, Tannery is endlessly defensive, finding every grandiose statement of Malraux's (and there are many) prescient and every critic guilty of misunderstanding. This is one of the closest readings of Malraux to date, but one that does him some disservice.Grove Koger, Boise P.L., Id.Copyright 1991 Reed Business Information, Inc.Product DescriptionMoving beyond merely biographical or textual interpretation, Claude Tannery traces the philosophy of life and art developed by Andr Malraux. With both sensitivity and expert interpretation he defines the issuespersonal and artistic as well as politicalthat underlie Malraux's writingsincluding early as well as late works, novels, speeches, and essays. The result is a new and subtle portrait of Malraux.From the Back CoverWhat emerges from Tannery's analysis is the portrait of an Absolute Agnostic, living his agnosticism as if it were itself a faith. Tannery's through and brilliant documenting of this spiritual journey will radically alter any future readings of Malraux.About the AuthorTeresa Lavender Fagan is a freelance translator living in Chicago; she has translated numerous books for the University of Chicago Press and other publishers.
