Item description from seller

1944-53 printing, Toledano 033.3 (no introduction), binding/jacket style 8h, 360 titles on verso, grey Rockwell Kent endpapers. Jacket rubbed, jacket price clipped. vi, 360 pp. 8vo. Grey cloth, gilt titles, Translated from the French by Haakon M. Chevalier. From the jacket: 'No writer of our time has so vividly dramatized the living spirit of revolution, nor so completely identified himself with the struggle for a new social order as Andre Malraux. Man's Fate, dealing with the 1925-1927 uprising in China, is, indeed, more than a novel of the fierce conflicts that tore a vast country asunder; it is a revelation of man's courage and heroism in the face of imminent annihilation. Winner of the Goncourt Prize for 1933, Man's Fate established Andre Malraux as one of the leading novelists of France and the world. Since then he has had a dramatic and distinguished career as a soldier and leader in the Resistance movement during World War Two, as a strong political voice in France and as an eminent art historian.
