Antimemoirs is the autobiography of France's leading anti-Fascist of the 1930s, Andre Malraux. He was a French novelist, art historian and statesman. The Antimemoirs are a tale in the first person, but that first person is neither the 'I' of confessions, nor the 'I' of traditional memoirs. India holds a privileged position in the book. In fact, the book originated from Malraux's travels in India and China in 1965.
After 1945, Malraux virtually abandoned novel writing for art history and criticism. His major work for this period was The Voices of Silence, in which he argues that art - and not any social or moral system - is humanity's only permanent expression of the will to triumph over fate. Francois Mauriac, a contemporary, called Malraux 'the greatest living French writer and certainly the oddest'. He remains one of the most prominent European men of letters.
