À propos de l'auteur

Louis Aragon was a prominent French poet, novelist, and essayist, known for his association with the Surrealist movement and his later involvement with the French Communist Party. Born in 1897, he was a key figure in the literary scene of the 20th century. Aragon's early works were heavily influenced by surrealism, as seen in his poetry collection 'The Somnambulists' and his novels that explored the depths of human consciousness and emotion. His style evolved over time, reflecting a shift toward more structured forms and themes of social and political commentary.

Throughout his life, Aragon maintained a dual identity as both a writer and a political activist. His works often intertwined the personal with the political, exploring the complexities of love, war, and identity. He was married to the poet Elsa Triolet, and their relationship significantly influenced his writing. Aragon's commitment to his beliefs and his artistic innovation have cemented his legacy as one of the foremost literary figures of his time.
