| Publisher Description: Respected by his peers and hugely successful internationally in his own time, Andr Maurois is now hardly read. Moderate and conciliatory in everything, including his literary style, he appealed to the educated reader of his time, but did those very qualities prevent him from achieving lasting distinction and impact? |
