About the author
Michel Zévaco
464 books146 followersMichel Zevaco (also written as Zévaco) was a French journalist, novelist, publisher, film director, and anti-clerical as well as anarchist activist.
Michel Zevaco founded the anarchist weekly magazine Gueux (French, Beggars) on March 27, 1892. A month later he was jailed for 6 months and fined for praising Pini and Ravachol. Afterwards he wrote for Sébastien Faure's journal, Libertaire, as well as for the anarchist newspaper La Renaissance. In 1898, he edited l'Anticlérical, for the Anticlerical League of France and was involved in supporting Alfred Dreyfus during the eponymous Dreyfus Affair.
Zevaco's famous cloak and dagger novels Les Pardaillan, began to be serialized in the daily newspapers in 1900 to great popular success. Yet he is today quite unknown, in spite of the new interest aroused by popular literature.
A former school teacher, then an officer, he became a militant journalist, who wrote for various revolutionary newspapers, of anarchist tendency. He became famous mainly for the part he played in the anti-clerical struggles at the end of the 19th century. Then, as a writer of serial novels, he published works which had a great success in Jean Jaurès' daily La Petite République, and he became appointed serial writer for Le Matin from 1906 to his death.
His already well-established popularity was made even greater by his promising beginnings as a film-director in 1917. His novels first published by Fayard and Tallandier were republished several times and adapted for the screen; the latest paperback edition only gives a mutilated version, and is impaired by many cuts.
He is remembered as the author of Les Pardaillan, Le Capitan, Borgia, Buridan, L'Héroïne, l'Hôtel Saint Pol and Nostradamus, his most famous historical novels, but also published novels related to his times. Some of his serials have not yet been published

الكتاب التاسع والعشرون بعد المئه منتقدي القراءة لعام 2023
رواية تدور احداثها في الهند عندما كانت ضمن الامبراطوريه الانجليزيه وانجلترا في الجزء الثاني تدور احداثها حول مجتمع النّور واختلاطهم بالاشراف الانجليز
لم تعجبني الروايه فلم تقدم فكره او عقده معينه كما انها لم تؤرخ لموضوع تاريخي او حدث
هي عباره عن قصص متداخله قد تكون فلم او عمل فني لا غير

القصة للاطفال وبيها توجه نحو الاستقلالية، ان تضيف افكار داخل القصة امر رائع، بس خليها تكون واقعية.
اقيمها نجمتين لان بيها اشياء غير منطقية حسب المنطق الي الكاتب مخليه وبيها امور سلبية اخرى مثل الامور الطفولية كالاعجاب من اول نظرة او من هذا لقبيل
