Meer over het boek

The analysis delves into Malraux's diverse body of work, spanning from his journalism in Indochina to his novels and essays. It challenges the conventional biographical narrative of Malraux, presenting him as a non-ideological, elitist artist rather than strictly a leftist revolutionary or a staunch Gaullist. The book offers a nuanced evaluation of how Malraux crafted both his public persona and the lives of his fictional and real-life heroes, highlighting his complex relationship with ideology and art.
