He wrote many of the pieces contained in this translation for Swiss newspapers. To get away from angry French cries of traitor, he lived in self-imposed exile in Switzerland where he was awarded the 1915 Nobel Prize for Literature in the same year that this volume, Au-Dessus de la Melee was first published. This is a nice first edition copy of this interesting work. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 8928
