Joseph Kessel

The novel, whose original title is L'Homme de plâtre, explores complex human destinies through the story of a protagonist whose life symbolically reflects fragility and vulnerability, like plaster.

The book is written in Kessel's distinctive style, which combines lyricism with a realistic depiction of human emotions and destinies.
