Anatole France (born François-Anatole Thibault, 18441924) was a French poet, journalist, and novelist with several best-sellers. Ironic and skeptical, he was considered in his day the ideal French man of letters. He was a member of the Académie française and won the 1921 Nobel Prize in Literature in recognition of his brilliant literary achievements, characterized as they are by a nobility of style, a profound human sympathy, grace, and a true Gallic temperament.This volume assembles five of his greatest novels: Penguin Island, The Crimes of Sylvestre Bonnard, The Gods Are Athirst, The Revolt of the Angels, and Thaïs.
