Pierre Drieu La Rochelle

Pierre Drieu la Rochelle was born in Paris on 3 January 1893. He served in the war of 1914, where he was wounded, and it left a lasting mark on all his work. Anxious about the decline he attributed to democracy, he turned to fascism in the mid-1930s. Under the Occupation, he directed the Nouvelle Revue française from 1940 to 1943 and was one of the intellectual figures of the collaboration. Sought after the Liberation, he died in Paris in March 1945.
