Marcel Pagnol

Marcel Paul Pagnol (, also US: pah-NYAWL; French: [maʁsɛl pɔl paɲɔl]; 28 February 1895 – 18 April 1974) was a French novelist, playwright, and filmmaker. Regarded as an auteur, in 1946, he became the first filmmaker elected to the Académie française. Pagnol is generally regarded as one of France's greatest 20th-century writers and is notable for his mastery of multiple literary genres —memoir, novel, theatre and film.

Fanny Trollope, mother of the novellist Anthony, begins to write a biography of her old friend Frances Wright, the Scottish radical and feminist. The 'biography' soon degenerates into a settling of scores with Fanny Wright and wild digressions on the misadventures of Mrs Trollope's own family.
